I´m loving the Faster CPython project. Just for a reference, I have a project originally written in (very optimized) Python, that has a Rust version. The Rust version is approximately 150% faster in Python 3.10. In Python 3.11 it is 100% faster. This is something incredible as I would prefer to keep it all in Python.

I'm excited to see the performance improvements as well...may be one day we will see a version w/out the GIL.

The following notes are interesting: https://lukasz.langa.pl/5d044f91-49c1-4170-aed1-62b6763e6ad0...
