Optimizations
=============
+* Builds using Visual Studio 2026 (MSVC 18) may now use the new
+ :ref:`tail-calling interpreter <whatsnew314-tail-call-interpreter>`.
+ Results on an early experimental MSVC compiler reported roughly 15% speedup
+ on the geometric mean of pyperformance on Windows x86-64 over
+ the switch-case interpreter. We have
+ observed speedups ranging from 15% for large pure-Python libraries
+ to 40% for long-running small pure-Python scripts on Windows.
