============================== PyPy 2.0.1 - Bohr Smørrebrød ============================== We're pleased to announce PyPy 2.0.1. This is a stable bugfix release over `2.0`_. You can download it here: https://pypy.org/download.html The fixes are mainly about fatal errors or crashes in our stdlib. See below for more details. What is PyPy? ============= PyPy is a very compliant Python interpreter, almost a drop-in replacement for CPython 2.7. It's fast (`pypy 2.0 and cpython 2.7.3`_ performance comparison) due to its integrated tracing JIT compiler. This release supports x86 machines running Linux 32/64, Mac OS X 64 or Windows 32. Support for ARM is progressing but not bug-free yet. .. _`pypy 2.0 and cpython 2.7.3`: https://speed.pypy.org Highlights ========== - fix an occasional crash in the JIT that ends in `RPython Fatal error: NotImplementedError`__. - `id(x)` is now always a positive number (except on int/float/long/complex). This fixes an issue in ``_sqlite.py`` (mostly for 32-bit Linux). - fix crashes of callback-from-C-functions (with cffi) when used together with Stackless features, on asmgcc (i.e. Linux only). Now `gevent should work better`__. - work around an eventlet issue with `socket._decref_socketios()`__. .. __: https://bugs.pypy.org/issue1482 .. __: https://mail.python.org/pipermail/pypy-dev/2013-May/011362.html .. __: https://bugs.pypy.org/issue1468 .. _2.0: release-2.0.0.html Cheers, arigo et. al. for the PyPy team
