Huh. I didn't realize PyPy was so much larger than CPython.

I was aware of the ridiculous size of emscripten's output. When I experimented with emscripten a couple months ago, "Hello World" in C produced about 2000 lines of JavaScript. Another ~700 line program in C ran about 150,000 to 200,000 lines, depending on various settings.
