Hi all, given the overwhelming lack of negative feedback on the latest alpha release, and the recent changes that made it into the master branch, I think it's time for a first beta release.
http://www.cython.org/release/Cython-0.21b1.tar.gz http://www.cython.org/release/Cython-0.21b1.tar.gz.asc This release features faster calls to C implemented Python functions and methods in simple (non-kwargs) cases, so you might see a net win if your code calls a lot into previously unoptimised builtins or other native extension modules (including Cython modules). There's also a bit of a speedup for Python method calls in general, in addition to the long list of improvements that were already in the last alpha. Complete changelog: https://github.com/cython/cython/blob/ebafd54916e1fe976a282e77b4d59577c793bfca/CHANGES.rst Please give it a try with your code. Any regressions that you find now have a chance of being fixed before the final release. Positive success stories are also appreciated. Have fun, Stefan _______________________________________________ cython-devel mailing list cython-devel@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/cython-devel
