Bat-Bit – Efficient Sparse Bitsets for Python reducing RAM usage

Summary: Bat-Bit is a C++ extension for Python that replaces standard data structures with sparse bitsets and columnar storage, reducing memory usage by up to 99% for large integer sets and 80% for object storage while speeding up insertions.

What it does

It provides high-performance sparse bitsets and columnar storage to optimize memory and insertion speed in Python data structures using parallel batching.

Who it's for

Designed for data science, high-frequency trading, and IoT applications requiring efficient memory and fast data operations.

Why it matters

It significantly lowers RAM consumption and accelerates data insertion for large-scale Python workloads.
