JuliaCon 2025 Hackathon Ideas!

I’ll be trying to chip away at more of the pairwise reduction refactor (#58418). Some concrete things to work on here include:

  • Doing a coordinated merge with sparse arrays for some pre-cursors that were split out (julia#55628 + JuliaSparse/SparseArrays.jl#615).
  • Brainstorming on the arrangement of the internals (and perhaps a real interface?) to help packages that were overloading internals before
  • Improvements to the benchmarking and analysis/plotting
  • Hunting for more optimizations and better rearrangements (that is, Performance challenge: can you write a faster sum?)
