Codon is a high-performance Python compiler that compiles Python code to native machine code without any runtime overhead. Typical speedups over Python are on the order of 100x or more, on a single thread. Codon supports native multithreading which can lead to speedups many times higher still. The Codon framework is fully modular and extensible, allowing for the seamless integration of new modules, compiler optimizations, domain-specific languages and so on. We actively develop Codon extensions for a number of domains such as bioinformatics and quantitative finance.
Features
- No learning curve: Be as close to CPython as possible in terms of syntax, semantics and libraries
- Top-notch performance: At least on par with low-level languages like C, C++ or Rust
- Hardware support: Full, seamless support for multicore programming, multithreading (no GIL!), GPU and more
- Documentation available
- Optimizations: Comprehensive optimization framework that can target high-level Python constructs and libraries
- Interoperability: Full interoperability with Python's ecosystem of packages and libraries
