Using Hashable DataFrames and Message Digests to Optimize Repeated CalculationsPhoto by AuthorA well-known technique for improving the run-time performance of a software system (in Python or any language) is function memoization. Memoization is a type of caching applied to a single function. If a function is called multiple times with the same arguments, repeating the calculation can be avoided by storing the results in a mapping (or on disk), keyed by the arguments.
