mindsdb_sql import speed

[ea-rus]

Import of mindsdb_sql module takes around a second. It looks like import of Parser module takes a most of that time

I think the next we can do for speed up is reduce syntax complexity or migrate to another parse library

[tomhuds]

Relevant when starting new HF subprocess (needs to import), however now not creating new subprocess for each HF query, so not as relevant.

Optimization in forked repo makes import 3 times faster https://github.com/ea-rus/sly

[paxcema]

Given that sly is retired, perhaps it makes sense to turn this fork into a mindsdb-sly package instead?

[ea-rus]

Yes, it is a question to discuss, what to do:

• make our own repo and release a new pip module
• make our own repo and not release pip module but install sly from git (or use git submodule)
• copy sly code to midsdb_sql repo
