python-blosc 1.5.1 Python wrapper for the Blosc data compressor library
Blosc is a high performance compressor optimized for binary data. It has been designed to transmit data to the processor cache faster than the traditional, non-compressed, direct memory fetch approach via a memcpy()
system call.
Blosc works well for compressing numerical arrays that contains data with relatively low entropy, like sparse data, time series, grids with regular-spaced values, etc.
This Python package wraps the Blosc library.
