When it comes to Python, everyone loves how easy it is to write and the abundance of libraries, but it often feels a bit lacking in performance. Don’t worry—today, I’m introducing a “hidden gem”: the Ahead of Time Compiler Nuitka, which can boost your Python’s speed and even protect your source code!
What is an Ahead of Time Compiler?
Let’s break it down. The CPython you normally use is like an interpretive “translator,” translating each line of code at runtime. JIT (like PyPy) collects hot spots during execution and compiles them into machine code for some dynamic optimization. An Ahead of Time (AOT) compiler, as the name suggests, compiles your code into an executable file before runtime, skipping the interpretation step. This makes it ideal for scenarios with high performance and deployment demands.
