PyPy3 is a fast, compliant alternative implementation of the Python
language (3.7.13, 3.8.13, 3.9.12). It has several advantages and distinct
features:

 - Speed: thanks to its Just-in-Time compiler, Python programs often run faster
          on PyPy3.
 - Memory usage: large, memory-hungry Python programs might end up taking less
                 space than they do in CPython.
 - Compatibility: PyPy3 is highly compatible with existing python code. It
                  supports ctypes and can run popular python libraries like
                  twisted and django.
 - Sandboxing: PyPy3 provides the ability to run untrusted code in a fully
               secure way.
 - Stackless: PyPy3 can be configured to run in stackless mode, providing
              micro-threads for massive concurrency.
 - As well as other features.
