Probably The Fastest Way To Execute Your Python Code

So the best way to speedup python is by not using python?

Many Python programmers are often frustrated with Python’s run-time. Here’s how you can make your code blazingly fast by changing just one line.

Codon is an open-source, high-performance Python compiler. In contrast to being an interpreter, it compiles your python code to fast machine code.

Thus, post compilation, your code runs at native machine code speed. As a result, typical speedups are often of the order 50x or more.

According to the official docs, if you know Python, you already know 99% of Codon. There are very minute differences between the two, which you can read here: Codon docs.
