Why Python Is Slow: Talking about SPy on the Behind the Commit Podcast
"Oh, that's exactly the talk which I just gave. Here we are talking about my EuroPython talk Myths and fairy tales around Python performance: video and slides."
"Currently SPy is a garbage-uncollected language. That's no longer the case! We have a proper GC since PR 390. This is still suboptimal and I plan to integrate better GCs in the future."
"Documentation is inexistent. Here it is! We went from 'inexistent' to 'scarce', I call it progress! :) This is entirely merit of members of the SPy community who did all the hard work."
SPy has undergone substantial development in the past year, addressing various performance issues in Python. Key advancements include the implementation of decorators, the establishment of a proper garbage collector, and the improvement of documentation. The core functionalities are now in good shape, allowing for the creation of higher-level abstractions. Community contributions have played a crucial role in enhancing the project's documentation, which has evolved from nonexistent to scarce. Overall, SPy is on a promising trajectory for future enhancements.
