Introduction

What is python-blosc?
=====================
Blosc (https://blosc.org) is a high performance compressor
optimized for binary data. It has been designed to transmit data to
the processor cache faster than the traditional, non-compressed,
direct memory fetch approach via a memcpy() OS call.
Blosc works well for compressing numerical arrays that contains data
with relatively low entropy, like sparse data, time series, grids with
regular-spaced values, etc.
This is a Python package that wraps it.
