A number like "1.5 times faster" is meaningless without a specific
application and/or code section in mind. I'm pretty sure there are cases
where they are much faster than that, and there are cases where the net
gain is zero (or -0.x or whatever).
Here is what they say:
Benchmark CPython Unladen Change
2to3 25.13 s 24.87 s 1.01x faster
django 1.08 s 0.68 s 1.59x faster
html5lib 14.29 s 13.20 s 1.08x faster
nbody 0.51 s 0.28 s 1.84x faster
rietveld 0.75 s 0.55 s 1.37x faster
slowpickle 0.75 s 0.55 s 1.37x faster
slowspitfire 0.83 s 0.61 s 1.36x faster
slowunpickle 0.33 s 0.26 s 1.26x faster
spambayes 0.31 s 0.34 s 1.10x slower
Ok, so, which of those do you care about?
