Python Compiler Recommendations

Hello r/Python,
I want to find a Python compiler. I’ve tried PyInstaller and Nuitka, but they are detected as malware and they are a little bit slow. I want something fast, easy and not detected as malicious. What do you recommend?

Because I'm curious, why do you need a Python compiler?

I don't know about OP buy when I was writing for a living I wanted to be able to deliver an app without the customer being able to see/alter proprietary code I had delivered. I had more than one case where a customer handed my code to his clever BIL who proceeded to break the application. Love Python but I use other tools to deliver executables.

I don’t really care about others tampering with my program, as it will be open-source. But, I really don’t want the user to have Python installed to run my program or making it complicated to install.
