[SciPy-user] Sparse Pickle

[David Warde-Farley]

Hi Dinesh,

There should be no problem pickling any of those, but what are you  
using it for? Pickle (even cPickle) tends to be pretty slow for large  
objects.

In case you do need something quicker, if you look through the mailing  
list archives you'll see that Andrew Straw posted some really clever  
code for quickly saving/loading CSR and CSC sparse matrices to/from  
the filesystem.

Cheers,

David
