I recently conducted performance tests for Python 3.14, comparing it with earlier versions 3.13, 3.12, 3.11, and 3.10. For this, I used the pyperformance tool on Windows 11, running about 100 benchmark tests across two different hardware setups: an AMD Ryzen 7000 desktop and Intel Core 13th-gen laptops. I utilized 64-bit builds of each version. I observed some interesting trends and I'm curious about the consistency of these performance gains in various environments. If anyone has come across other reliable benchmark comparisons for Python 3.14, please share! I'd love to see how those results compare to mine. You can view my full benchmark summary and charts in my article, video, or special project linked above.

I think it would have been helpful to include your benchmark results directly here instead of just linking to the article. It makes it easier for discussions if we can see the numbers right away!
It’d be great if you could highlight the key takeaways in your article. A summary of the results would really help those of us trying to grasp the trends without diving into all the data tables. Maybe a concise conclusion outlining the major performance changes would do the trick!
Thanks for the suggestion! I'll definitely consider summarizing key points in my next update.
It would also be useful if you could add the JIT compilation version at least for Python 3.14. That might give more context to the performance enhancements you’re discussing.
Absolutely! An article should tell us what the numbers really mean, not just list them.
