LPython: Novel, Fast, Retargetable Python Compiler
<i>"...The benchmarks support the claim that LPython is competitive with its competitors in all features it offers.  ... Our benchmarks show that it’s straightforward to write high-speed LPython code. We hope to raise expectations that LPython output will be in general at least as fast as the equivalent C++ code."</i><p>At least as fast as C++ is a bold claim, but this is an interestingly documented process. I'm keen.<p>I'm quite partial to Nuitka at this point, but I'm open to other Python compilers.
