Python 3.14 Is Here. How Fast Is It? (via) Miguel Grinberg uses some basic benchmarks (like fib(40)) to test the new Python 3.14 on Linux and macOS and finds some substantial speedups over Python 3.13 - around 27% faster.
The optional JIT didn't make a meaningful difference to his benchmarks. On a threaded benchmark he got 3.09x speedup with 4 threads using the free threading build - for Python 3.13 the free threading build only provided a 2.2x improvement.
