This episode is the first of several that dive into some of the active efforts to increase the speed of Python while maintaining compatibility with existing code and packages.
Who better to help kick this off than Guido van Rossum and Mark Shannon? They both join us to share their project to make Python faster. I'm sure you'll love hearing what they are up to.
