An mmap object is one of the things you can make a memoryview of, although looking again, it seems you don't even need to, you can just re.search the mmap object directly. re.search'ing the mmap object means the operating system takes care of the streaming for you, reading in parts of the file only as necessary. regards, Anders _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list Python-ideas@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-ideas Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
