Not that I know of; you can try searching bugs.python.org, though, to verify.
?
Would it be better to integrate larger dataset sizes into difflib or to create something new such as bigdifflib?

This would be overkill for a new module. Patches are welcome if you would like to propose a solution for the pre-existing difflib module.

If you would like your patch to be considered for inclusion with Python you
will need to open an issue at bugs.python.org and attach the patch to the
issue.
