StringZilla is the GodZilla of string libraries, using SIMD and SWAR to
accelerate string operations on modern CPUs. It is up to 10x faster than the
default and even other SIMD-accelerated string libraries in C, C++, Python,
and other languages, while covering broad functionality. It accelerates exact
and fuzzy string matching, edit distance computations, sorting,
lazily-evaluated ranges to avoid memory allocations, and even random-string
generators.
NOTE: If this package has multiple flavors (see below), then use one of them instead of the name specified above. NOTE: This is a Python port. Instead of py312-stringzilla listed in the above command, you can pick from the names under the Packages section.
python.mk: rename PYTHON_EXT_SUFFIX to PYTHON_TAG, document, etc
EXT_SUFFIX, according to PEP 3149, refers to the full tag and
extension for compiled extension module objects, eg .cpython-311.so,
.cpython-313t.so, etc. We do not use the correct semantic meaning,
and this usage becomes ambiguous and confusing when tags do not
match between bytecode and compiled extension module objects.
Rename our PYTHON_EXT_SUFFIX to PYTHON_TAG to align with PEP 3147's
specification of a magic tag, which consists of implementation name
and shorthand version only. This is meant for bytecode and other
files containing this tag in their filename that do not depend on
a specific Python ABI for the same version. Chase all existing
consumers.
