Awesome work Vish.  Looks like we're a lot closer to working on PyPy 
than I thought.

There's a typo in your post: "ins't".

The missing os.statvfs is https://bugs.pypy.org.issue833  There's been 
some recent work here in the missing-os-functions branch, so maybe it'll 
be fixed soon.

I think if you s/psycopg2/psycopg2ct/ rather than just deleting it, it 
might actually work with Postgres.

I see a ton of commits in the jitframe-on-heap branch over the last 
couple of days, so your eventlet issues may be sorted out soon.
