Over the past weekend we merged
(https://github.com/pyca/cryptography/pull/1986) a major improvement to the way
we compile our bindings. The recent release of cffi 1.0+ brings a new out of
line API mode using "set_source" and we have converted pyca/cryptography to use
that. This allows us to do a more traditional compile phase, removing much of
our monkeypatching and dramatically reducing overhead on import (both in time
and memory). However, this is a big change, so I'm sending this email to
encourage people to clone master (https://github.com/pyca/cryptography) and
verify that everything is working as expected in your environment.
If you run into problems please file issues ASAP. Anything we uncover before
the tenth feature release (which will be versioned 1.0!) is great.
