I was going through this project over the weekend. And while I can't recall where exactly in the docs I read this, I am quite sure the author mentioned that there are various python projects but they are quite slow. Other implementations such as leela chess zero have a lot of C++ and are difficult to follow.
In fact, one of the things we want to do is maximize the performance of the Julia implementation. We hope to co-develop the compiler and ML stack to address these issues as they come up.

- doublesCs 6y agoTruly truly thank you for your work <3
- newswasboring 6y agoNot sure you are thanking jonath_laurent (original author of package of discussion) or ViralBShah (co-creator of Julia). But I concur on both accounts :D
- doublesCs 6y agoViral. I thanked Jonath in a different post :-P When I see projects like this (I mean especially Julia, but also people sharing their work on packages like this) I feel very fortunate that elements of the free software movement are still alive.
