Interesting. A few q's as an Excel performance nerd who's fooled around in Pandas: * Why the design choice to tie the calc engine directly to a DB vs computing dependencies and returning values post-facto? * How does vectorization scale when using "volatiles" like offset-style formulas that may dynamically change the calc graph? Every time I tried to recreate stuff in Excel in Pandas/Numpy, 1:1 multiplication wasn't the issue, the weird dependencies that prevented using their vectorized capabilities were.
