> How good is PyPy for production code nowadays?

Unless you are using CPython extensions, PyPy is usable as a drop-in replacement that's significantly faster in almost all cases. In order to notice any significant speed gain, the JIT needs a chance to "warm up" though, so on short running applications or on web applications for the first couple of requests PyPy can be slower than CPython.
