* Python 3.12 support
* minimum supported version to 3.9
* Add support for ufunc attributes and reduce
* Add a config variable to enable / disable the llvmlite memory
manager
* see https://numba.readthedocs.io/en/stable/release/0.59.0-notes.html#highlights
* fix regressions with 0.57.0
+ Support is added for the dict(iterable) constructor.
- Clean up leftover Python 3.8 gubbins, look forward to Python 3.11 support.
This release focuses on performance improvements, but also adds
some new features and contains numerous bug fixes and stability
* Intel kindly sponsored research and development into producing
a new reference count pruning pass. This pass operates at the
LLVM level and can prune a number of common reference counting
patterns. This will improve performance for two primary
- There will be less pressure on the atomic locks used to do
- Removal of reference counting operations permits more
inlining and the optimisation passes can in general do more
* Intel also sponsored work to improve the performance of the
numba.typed.List container, particularly in the case of
* Superword-level parallelism vectorization is now switched on
and the optimisation pipeline has been lightly analysed and
tuned so as to be able to vectorize more and more often
* The inspect_cfg method on the JIT dispatcher object has been
significantly enhanced and now includes highlighted output and
* The BSD operating system is now unofficially supported (Stuart
* Numerous features/functionality improvements to NumPy support,
- the ndarray allocators, empty, ones and zeros, accepting a
* Cudasim support for mapped array, memcopies and memset has

* Support for Python 3.11 (minimum is moved to 3.8)
* Support for NumPy 1.24 (minimum is moved to 1.21)
* Python language support enhancements:
+ Exception classes now support arguments that are not compile time
constant.
+ The built-in functions hasattr and getattr are supported for compile
time constant attributes.
+ The built-in functions str and repr are now implemented similarly to
their Python implementations. Custom __str__ and __repr__ functions
can be associated with types and work as expected.
+ Numba’s unicode functionality in str.startswith now supports kwargs
start and end.
+ min and max now support boolean types.
+ Support is added for the dict(iterable) constructor.
