python保存数据的各种方式比较（磁盘空间，时间消耗）

Posted 2022-06-18 MrCharles

Npy and binary files are both really fast and small for dense data. If the data is sparse or very structured, you might want to use npz with compression, which’ll save a lot of space but cost some load time.

If portability is an issue, binary is better than npy. If human readability is important, then you’ll have to sacrifice a lot of performance, but it can be achieved fairly well using csv (which is also very portable of course).
