From the article: "the first usable PyPy was released in 2010." For most practical purposes PyPy is only two years old, not ten.

  No. Before it was known as PyPy, PyPy was known as Psyco. I remembered playing with it. In Pressyo's internal documentation there were many mentions of using Psyco (we never actually ended up using it)

    I think Psyco was a separate code base, and not an actual progenitor of PyPy.

      Ahhh... I see I was mistaken. Both are projects by Armin. I thought Psyco became PyPy

  Working pypy was released before that. The first release that had a JIT that made stuff faster was released in 2010. So a lot of codebase is much older than that.
