I run it in a production environment (side project).
I also use it locally when developing when necessary.
It really does speed up loops by 5x or so.
So when you're trying to say... test 100 million+ iterations of something, pypy will run that in something like 2 minutes versus cpython can take me 15 minutes.
Honestly it's an amazing performance gain for 0 effort, and I have yet to run into a limitation with it.
