Hey, this is my post from 2021, when I was testing Python2.7 and Python3.6 with Cosmopolitan Libc on an old 4-thread Haswell. It's now a lot easier to build Python (and gcc, gnu coreutils, curl etc.), and the binaries are faster, multi-threaded, and quite convenient to use. There are lots of interesting directions to explore when it comes to building software with Cosmopolitan Libc.

Thanks for updating the blog post too with the datasette screen recording, the speed difference is quite noticeable.

Adding it here since a few people were wondering about it in the comments, but feel free to check the original article for the 2024 update:
