On: It’s time for Python 2.7

Have you tried pypy?

pypy doesn't support gevent/eventlet, as far as I know. :(

Unfortunately, psyco isn't x86_64 compatible either. So if you want to use psyco, you are "stuck" with python2.6 on x86.

Not yet, indeed. But according to their site they do have a stackless version: "PyPy can be configured to run in stackless mode, providing micro-threads for massive concurrency". This sounds promising, and could be used to implement gevent.

When compiling an executable, I use 32 bit 2.6, and the binaries work fine, with psyco even on 64 bit systems.
