- zem 2y agoi can't, unfortunately, it was youtube internal code. but by the same token a lot of the performance stuff was specific optimisations for that code and would not really generalise. one of the current "extremely large python codebase" projects is instagram, and they do have some public repos, notably monkeytype (https://github.com/Instagram/MonkeyType https://github.com/Instagram/MonkeyType) which youtube did have its own analogue of, and cinder (https://engineering.fb.com/2022/05/02/open-source/cinder-jits-instagram/ https://engineering.fb.com/2022/05/02/open-source/cinder-jit...). in general facebook's engineering blog is a great place to read about this sort of thing.
