Hi. We had tons of success using protobuf-c and wrapping the resulting wrapper using cffi. The pure-python protobuf wrapper generates really terrible code - don't use it for anything performance-sensitive.

Yeh I know. We discussed this approach on the #PyPy irc channel. As far as I recall the wrapper is not open source. We needed something that can be done quickly and therefore Reflex code generation based approach worked better for us.

  there is no wrapper ;-) at least no wrapper generator, we just hand-wrapped some stuff.

    Reflex generates the bindings for us. That's why we chose it instead of hand-wrapping the C API ourselves.
