- masklinn 14y agoThe low-level LZMACompressor and LZMADecompressor are thin wrappers around liblzma, there is no pure-python implementation as far as I can tell. So it should be as fast as liblzma itself.
- andreasvc 14y agoI find it really strange that every compression format gets its own top-level stdlib module. Why not compress.lzma and compress.gzip etc., or even compress.open(..., format="lzma") ? It seems ad-hoc and disorganized to me.
- sigzero 14y agoTry opening a PEP...and volunteering to move them into that namespace. I actually think that is a good idea myself.
