Hi Shapely-Users, I wrote some speedups for Shapely. It improves the creation of new geometries, e.g. LineString([(x0, y0), (x1, y1)]). The speedup depends on the number of coordinates. It goes from 2x for two point linestrings to up to 100x for geometries with thousand or more points and to up to 200x when creating from numpy arrays.
The code and a small readme is at: https://github.com/olt/shapely_speedups I also made a package and it should be installable with easy_install or pip pip install http://bogosoft.com/misc/shapely_speedups-0.1dev.tar.gz You should try it out if you are dealing with lots of geometries and give me some feedback. Sean and I want to include the speedups into Shapely, if it works well for everyone.
