let's wait to incorporate tiffslide until https://github.com/bayer-science-for-a-better-life/tiffslide/issues/72 is resolved. i have found that tiffslide is slower than openslide when reading patches from a TCGA BRCA slide.
instead of removing openslide, we have included a choice of backend, tiffslide or openslide in https://github.com/SBU-BMI/wsinfer/pull/139
this will require uses to install openslide or tiffslide separately. let's think about how to do this... what should be listed as a required dependency in setup.py?
replace openslide with tiffslide https://github.com/bayer-science-for-a-better-life/tiffslide
tiffslide is implemented in pure python and should make distribution easier.
