Consider providing a Cython implementation #37

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

By just copying and pasting the pure Python version of diff-match-patch to a 
pyx file and compiling it with Cython, the time it takes to compare the 
speedtest text files with the provided unit test, was cut in half.

Or a C version, since then cffi could be used to bind it to both CPython and 
Pypy.
