[issue41310] micro-optimization: increase our float parsing speed by Nx

Is there a description of the algorithms or ideas used anywhere? The blog post you link to has no details, and I don't see any useful descriptions in the GitHub README or the source; trawling through the source to figure out what the key ideas are is not ideal. I don't find the tests particularly convincing, either.

I think this is too immature to consider for CPython, right now. Maybe it would make sense to revisit some day in the future if/when the library is more mature.
