Python is convenient and flexible, yet notably slower than other languages for raw computational speed. The Python ecosystem has compensated with tools that make crunching numbers at scale in Python ...

Every Python developer knows some or all of these libraries, because they’re stable, reliable, and excellent at what they do.

Many computational endeavors benefit from some form of parallelization, and SLURM provides a way to do “embarrassingly parallel” processing relatively simply (read more about parallelization).
