pypy is basicly python code transformed into machine code. If you ever tryed, compiling it takes time and most python programmers are lazy and doesn't like compiled languages (this is why they code in python). And mostly because it's not compatible with all libraries for python (i.e. it's not magic). It supports a reasonable amount of them but if the job gets done fast, performance doesn't matter for people. Python is fast enough for them. And to mention, there is a library for python called pyschomatic or something like that. Basicly turns .py to .pyc which is python bytecode and does optimisation too. So python becomes really fast even still it's interpreted.
