Hi, My idea is to set the starting point for itertools.product() <https://docs.python.org/3.6/library/itertools.html#itertools.product> since it becomes very slow if the point of interest is in the middle. For example when working with datetime tuples with seconds resolution (worst case, milli/microseconds), you need to skip a lot of items.
There are several methods I have tried as an alternative but itertools.product() is the fastest: - datetime and timedelta - naive looping This is where I applied it but the issue at seconds resolution is still a bottleneck: https://github.com/Code-ReaQtor/DocCron/blob/1.0.0/doccron/job.py#L171 Setting the starting point might come in handy if we want to skip several data. What do you think? Best Regards, Ronie
