Things I like about PyPy...

The fact that PyPy needs to use scientific notation to print the results of a pystone benchmark... :-)


Pystone(1.1) time for 50000 passes = 0.016978
This machine benchmarks at 2.94499e+06 pystones/second

.... is an i7 really that much more powerful than my 3-4 year old core2duo? Wow.... (I find it hard to believe, but I guess the numbers aren't lying)
