List comprehensions are no longer slow in PyPy 7.3.1

I've almost finished what I want to say in the title ...

By the way, [https://morepypy.blogspot.com/2020/04/pypy-731-released.html](PyPy 7.3.1 released) has the following sentence.

improved JIT code generation for generators (and generator expressions in particular) when passing them to functions like sum, map, and map that consume them.

List comprehension is just like passing a generator expression to the list function !?

$ cat 1.py
n = 10**7

a = [0]*n
for i in range(n):
    a[i] = i*2

$ cat 2.py
n = 10**7

a = [i*2 for i in range(n)]

$ ./pypy3 --version

List comprehension is faster !!

$ time ./pypy3.exe 1.py

$ time ./pypy3.exe 2.py

List comprehensions are about three times slower in PyPy 7.3.0.

Unfortunately, the language update for AtCoder is PyPy 7.3.0, isn't it? Sadness doesn't stop.

Postscript: It is alive and well that the addition of strings is hopelessly slow.

$ cat 3.py
n = 10**5
res = 'a'
for _ in [0]*n:
    res += 'a'
