Hi,

I rejected my own PEP 510 "Specialize functions with guards" that I wrote in January 2016:

https://github.com/python/peps/commit/c99fb8bf5b5c16c170e1603a1c66a74e93a4ae84

"This PEP was rejected by its author since the design didn't show any significant speedup, but also because of the lack of time to implement the most advanced and complex optimizations."

I stopped working on my FAT Python project almost one year ago: https://faster-cpython.readthedocs.io/fat_python.html
