====== PyPy ======

====== Building ======

Building %%PyPy%% can be done using the Ports Collection or directly from source.  The former is recommended.

The %%PyPy%% build process has two phases:
  * The translation phase converts the language interpreter, written in RPython, into C code.  This is done using a python interpreter (currently either cPython or %%PyPy%%).  This is a single thread task.  
  * The compilation phase compiles the C code into a single executable.  This is a highly parallel task.  

See below for detailed discussions on the various aspects of building %%PyPy%%.

To install %%PyPy%% from ports:

''%%# make -C /usr/ports/lang/pypy install%%''

===== Building without port =====
See [[http://pypy.org/download.html#building-from-source|PyPy instructions]] on building %%PyPy%% directly from source.

====== TODO ======
  * Properly check sandbox support and create sandbox VM-thing (does upstream support sandboxing?)
  * Add pypy-based numpy port???
  * Make a jitviewer port (depends on flask pygments simplejson Jinja2 Werkzeug)
  * Support valgrind
  * Integrate %%PyPy%% into bsd.python.mk
