While all beginning Python developers will probably start coding using Python’s Integrated Development and Learning Environment (IDLE), it won’t take long before they realize this approach has its limits. Most will look to tools that help them more efficiently build code.
If uptime is a core tenet of your business success, unreported issues and users moving on to the next best thing isn't an option. Take San Francisco-based Arcade for example.
We develop an analytics HTTP API in Python. This is how we discover what to improve to serve requests faster.
SDKs naturally increase in size over time. After all, it does take more bytes to implement more features. This is not a big deal for most languages—the relative size of each new feature is small, and load times and storage aren’t big concerns for code running on a server. Larger JS bundles mean longer load times, which in turn increase user misery, which then can cause the user to leave pages entirely.

Some of the tricks we used to speed up calls to our analytics API written in Python: played with asyncio, messed with SQLAlchemy, hacked deep in asyncpg, rewrote parts in Cython, found better data structures, replaced some pandas with pure numpy.
Most plugin based models load all assemblies into a single shared context. This is a common approach because it has better memory usage and startup performance. The history and rules of assembly loading in .NET is convoluted; its current status makes it difficult (and sometimes impossible) to load multiple different versions of the same assembly into a shared context. Instead of trying to struggle with existing options we decided to build a new tool: Alias.
Many .NET applications and frameworks support a plugin based model). Also known as "add-in" or "extension" model. A plugin model allows extension or…
