Add a JIT compiler? (feature request) #125

Closed Kaiyangshi-Ito closed 1 year ago

Kaiyangshi-Ito commented 1 year ago

Hi, I wonder if there is a plan to use a JIT compiler to make it faster? There are some JIT compilers that are pretty easy to use, e.g., numba or Jax

The slow parts are already written in cython, so I don't see how a JIT compiler would make it faster. So no, there is no such plan. If you or anyone else is able to significantly speed up the code using a JIT compiler, then PRs are of course welcome.
