Blosc (http://blosc.org) is a high performance compressor optimized for binary data. It has been designed to transmit data to the processor cache faster than the traditional, non-compressed, direct memory fetch approach via a memcpy() OS call. Whether this is achieved or not depends of the data compressibility, the number of cores in the system, and other factors. See a series of benchmarks conducted for many different systems: http://blosc.org/trac/wiki/SyntheticBenchmarks. Blosc works well for compressing numerical arrays that contains data with relatively low entropy, like sparse data, time series, grids with regular-spaced values, etc. There is also a handy command line for Blosc called Bloscpack (https://github.com/esc/bloscpack) that allows you to compress large binary datafiles on</pre> Francesc Alted 2013-05-17T18:40:02 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.python.announce/11068 <pre>Hello!

Lemburg 2013-05-16T07:53:05 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.python.announce/11065 <pre>It is my greatest pleasure to announce the release of Python 2.7.5. 2.7.5 is the latest maintenance release in the Python 2.7 series. You may be surprised to hear from me so soon, as Python 2.7.4 was released slightly more than a month ago. As it turns out, 2.7.4 had several regressions and incompatibilities with 2.7.3. Among them were regressions in the zipfile, gzip, and logging modules. 2.7.5 fixes these. In addition, a data file for testing in the 2.7.4 tarballs and binaries aroused the suspicion of some virus checkers. The 2.7.5 release removes this file to resolve that issue. For details, see the Misc/NEWS file in the distribution or view it at http://hg.python.org/cpython/file/ab05e7dd2788/Misc/NEWS Downloads are at http://python.org/download/releases/2.7.5/ As always, please report bugs to http://bugs.python.org/ (Thank you to those who reported these bugs in 2.7.4.)

This is an easy way to modify the semantics of a python program in ways which are otherwise impossible, for example providing an extremely concise way of declaring classes: &lt; at &gt;case class Point(x, y) p = Point(1, 2) print p.x # 1 print p # Point(1, 2) Apart from this, we've used MacroPy's macros to implement a pretty impressive list of features: - Quasiquotes - String Interpolation - Pyxl, integrating XML markup into a Python program - Tracing and Smart Asserts - Case Classes, easy Algebraic Data Types from Scala - Pattern Matching from the Functional Programming world - LINQ to SQL from C# - Quick Lambdas from Scala and Groovy, - Parser Combinators, inspired by Scala's.
