I was curious about node/jitless node versus python/pypy:

      src time node primes.js             
    78498
    node primes.js  1.75s user 0.05s system 102% cpu 1.761 total
      src time node --jitless primes.js
    78498
    node --jitless primes.js  5.06s user 0.04s system 100% cpu 5.088 total
      src time python primes.py
    78498
    python primes.py  4.27s user 0.03s system 100% cpu 4.276 total
      src asdf shell python pypy3.9-7.3.9
      src time python primes.py
    78498
    python primes.py  0.91s user 0.07s system 100% cpu 0.970 total
Actually relatively on par with one another.
