I used PyPy with SymPy when I was helping out a mathematician-friend. SymPy is not exactly fast, a free performance boost was very welcome.

Interesting. I was under the impression PyPy did not do so well with SymPy because the dynamic code paths are difficult to JIT. What kind tasks waw a speed up?

    It's been a while and the code is long lost. We only touched the surface of SymPy. Functions, Substitutions, some `ingegrate` and `simplify` is what I remember. The maths was already done. My job was to verify some equations.
