Summary : Drop-in replacement for zlib and gzip modules using zlib-ng
|
Description :
Faster zlib and gzip compatible compression and decompression by providing Python bindings for the zlib-ng library.
This package provides Python bindings for the zlib-ng library.
python-zlib-ng provides the bindings by offering three modules:
• zlib_ng: A drop-in replacement for the zlib module that uses zlib-ng to accelerate its performance. • gzip_ng: A drop-in replacement for the gzip module that uses zlib_ng instead of zlib to perform its compression and checksum tasks, which improves performance. • gzip_ng_threaded offers an open function which returns buffered read or write streams that can be used to read and write large files while escaping the GIL using one or multiple threads. This functionality only works for streaming, seeking is not supported.
zlib_ng and gzip_ng are almost fully compatible with zlib and gzip from the Python standard library. There are some minor differences see: https://pypi.org/project/zlib-ng/#differences-with-zlib-and-gzip-modules
Beginning with Fedora Linux 40, zlib-ng provides the system-wide zlib implementation, so the Python standard library already uses it by default. However, some projects still need the APIs provided by this package.
