  1. …does (did?). I wrote a python protobuf library on top of a C protobuf library that avoids codegen: https://github.com/acg/lwpb [0] See the ARC format used by the Internet Archive for a similar (and imo clunkier) solution.…

  2. …but I have a small C/Python protobuf library that's 10x faster than the standard Python protobuf: https://github.com/acg/lwpb PS. I see you're in SLC area -- me too. We should talk tech shop in person sometime!

  7. Here's a fast Python C extension for protobuf that's already usable: https://github.com/acg/lwpb I read through your upb code about 3-4 months ago, was initially impressed, but couldn't get the Python extension to work. Certain…

  8. I too have a speedy Protocol Buffer implementation in Python: https://github.com/acg/lwpb It clocks in at 11x faster than json, the same speedup reported by fast-pb. Only with lwpb: * There's no codegen step -- which is a disgusting thing…
