"Open-source Tool Turbocharges Python Programming Speeds by Thousands of Times"
Originally Published 2 years ago — by Tech Xplore

Computer scientists at the University of Massachusetts Amherst have developed an open-source Python profiler called Scalene, which identifies inefficiencies in Python code and suggests ways to optimize it using AI. Python is known for being slower than other programming languages, but Scalene helps programmers troubleshoot and streamline their code for higher performance. The tool has already been downloaded over 750,000 times since its release and won a Best Paper Award at the USENIX Conference on Operating System Design and Implementation.
