Performance
- improve performance of
Levenshtein.distance/Levenshtein.editopsfor
long sequences.
Added
- add
score_hintparameter toLevenshtein.editopswhich allows the use of a
faster implementation
Changed
- all functions in the
string_metricmodule do now raise a deprecation warning.
They are now only wrappers for their replacement functions, which makes them slower
when used with the process module
