FYI, will try to use this API in psycopg3, which supports the PostgreSQL decimal binary format. Thank you very much: it seems exactly what needed. Binary conversion with Python Decimal currently has disappointing performances and is slower than the text format conversion. This is likely caused by the use of Decimal.as_tuple(), which creates tuples for the return value and the digits and requires Python calls to access their values. I have considered using libmpdec directly: personally I wouldn't be opposed to that, but the additional dependency on libmpdec-dev would earn the project no new fan :\ Ref. https://github.com/psycopg/psycopg3/issues/54 ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue41324> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
