Parakeet and Numba

Parakeet is another project that works alongside Numba, adding extremely specific optimizations to the Python code that uses lots of nested loops and parallelism. As with OpenMP, where it's really cool, Numba too requires using annotations on your code to do all this for the programmer. The downside is that you won't just magically optimize any Python code, the optimization that Parakeet does is on very specific sets of code.
