Psyco is a Python extension module which can greatly speed up the execution of any Python code.
Psyco is basically a Just In time compiler or a JIT, but as of March 10, 2010 it doesnt work on 64 bit systems. If you recently bought a mac then your OS is 64 bits.You used to have to recompile python to the 32 bit ver.
Well no more just run this
defaults write com.apple.versioner.python Prefer-32-Bit -bool yes
How did you install psyco itself? It fails when I install it using pip in virtualenv.
Cheers,
Tomas
Same problem here: I set the defaults, but…
svn co http://codespeak.net/svn/psyco/dist/ psyco-dist
cd psyco-dist
python setup.py install
…still fails with
