DESCRIPTION:Although Python is popular and known for rapid development and
  great ecosystem\, performance may often be an issue when running certain 
 types of tasks. For example\, we ran into performance issues when we had t
 o parse and chunk CSV files of arbitrary sizes.\n\nUtilising C for core fu
 nctions and a wrapper with Cython\, we were able to quickly build a lightw
 eight Python module that improved the performance of our use case!\n\nThro
 ugh this talk\, we'd demonstrate how tools like Cython could make Python e
 ven more powerful.
