Recently Antonio, Armin and Ronan had a small internal sprint in the beautiful
city of Gdańsk to kick-off the development of HPy. Here is a brief report of
what was accomplished during the sprint.
Recently I have merged the gc-disable branch, introducing a couple of features
which are useful when you need to respond to certain events with the lowest
possible latency. This work has been kindly sponsored by Gambit Research
(which, by the way, is a very cool and geeky place where to work, in case you
are interested). Note also that this is a very specialized use case, so these
features might not be useful for the average PyPy user, unless you have the
same problems as described here.
