Boost The Performance with Codon
summary
Codon compiles Python ahead-of-time to native machine code and yields 10 to 100x speedups on numeric and recursive workloads in the demos (primes, Fibonacci, tight loops). It uses 64-bit signed integers and ASCII strings, disables some dynamic Python features, and prefers C-like semantics to gain speed; that design is ahead-of-time native compilation. Installer and Google Colab demos produce executables and show the compiler still missing some stdlib/third-party coverage.
