Thanks! Added to the list, it’s suspiciously only a little bit faster than CPython 3.11 though, which probably needs more investigation…
ED> Looks like CPython prefers using a dict as a lookup table for opcodes (which is what this implementation does), while PyPy prefers having a long series of if-statements. Hmm.
That makes sense because pypy can JIT a ladder of if/else to a compare/jump conditional each whereas a dict lookup can be an order of magnitude more complex. If they're 8bit opcodes, maybe having a list based lookup table will perform similarly on py3000 and still optimize on pypy?
