Why not switch to Mojo lang for this? It's Python-compatible with Golang like performance from what I hear.

@eshnil (& others familiar with Mojo)

I had not looked at Mojo... thanks for the pointer. In the past, I've had issues with library compatibility with compiled derivative languages of interpreted ones (eg: Crystal of Ruby, etc, etc).

Know if Mojo directly uses existing Python ecosystem?

I've been using Polars, etc.

They say they do, including libs with C bindings.

It's not available yet outside of hosted environments provided by Modular.

Haven't looked. Honestly, I'm so invested in this now it would be a pain to change anything.

I'm excited for Mojo, but it'll be years before it's ready for prime time as a general purpose language. It's not even available to download yet AFAIK...

Hilarious how you suggest someone use a technology that isn't even publicly available, showing how extremely shallow your knowledge is.
