Cythonize text comparison for performance

Submitted by Yuri

Link to original bug (#776007)

Description

Some python projects build binaries to improve speed. I suggest the same is done for meld, optionally, because meld performance really suffers on larger files, ex. more than 10,000 lines.

As an experiment, I tried to cythonize the code with the script like this:

from distutils.core import setup from Cython.Build import cythonize

setup( name = "meld", ext_modules = cythonize(("meld/.py","meld//*.py")) ) called with arguments build_ext --inplace

but got errors, something about code not being in a package.

Examples of cythonized projects: py-re2, py-opendht, py-scikit-sparse.
