Python compilation

Hello All,

I would like to have a broad knowledge on Python.
Basically, I would like to know how parsing,
compilation, and interpretation take place, how memory
management works, how the Python interpreter performs
compared to others, etc. I already looked at Python's
documentation, but couldn't find any detailed
information. Any references would be appreciated.
Thank you for your help.

Regards,

Dave
