Well, Python is not known for its speed (even among established interpreted languages), and a couple of design choices make it have a pretty heavy overhead. Still, a toy language focusing on a particular benchmark can most likely easily beat any other high-level language. |

Not sure what is the effective definition of "toy language".

I was just curious to understand the performance difference so I have tried fib(40) on both BIPLAN and python side.
How can python be THAT slow? It is a huge waste of energy and people's time.
