ABI compatibility. However, as I understand it, not many backward ABI incompatible changes in Numpy are not expected in future. If they were, I note that if you work in the same environment, you can push repeated compilation times to zero compared to the time it takes to run tests in a way that requires less configuration, by enabling ccache/f90cache. _______________________________________________ NumPy-Discussion mailing list NumPy-Discussion@scipy.org https://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
