I gather that you don't actually use PyPy much. On average, I expect PyPy to deliver over a 3x speedup. The main issue is that people have built upon slow libraries like Numpy that only seem fast because CPython is even slower.

The reason that CPython cannot have a JIT added on is architectural and political. The CPython core team refuses to learn lessons from PyPy.
