What's the difference between this Python project and similar ones?
- Utilizes all the available cores unlike single-threaded libraries such as NumPy and Pandas.
- Built from the ground up designed for parallelization of queries on dataframes.
- Its csv and parquet readers are among the fastest in existence.
- It consists of a lazy query engine, allowing Polars to do several optimizations that may improve query time and memory usage.
