Performance is the only thing that is holding me back to consider Python for bigger web applications.

Of the 3 main languages for web dev these days - Python, PHP and Javascript - I like Python the most. But it is scary how slow the default runtime, CPython, is. Compared to PHP and Javascript, it crawls like a snake.

Pypy could be a solution as it seems to be about 6x faster on average.

Is anybody here using Pypy for Django?

Did Clubhouse document somewhere if they are using CPython or Pypy?
