using cython with pyarmor

[Effectimminent]

trying to use cython to improve the speed and resistance of pyarmor modules wondering if there is a method for doing this

I suspect not.

It looks like pyarmor translates your Python code to something like

```

from pyarmorruntime import __pyarmor__

__pyarmor__(b"some nonsense byte string")

```

It translates the byte string back to Python bytecode at runtime. So there's nothing useful for Cython to compile - it's just a function call and a byte string.

However, there's some old documentation about it which has since been removed https://web.archive.org/web/20220528111644/https://pyarmor.readthedocs.io/en/latest/advanced.html#work-with-cython

To be clear - obfuscation is not a use-case that Cython cares about so please don't think that we spend any time worrying about making Cython extension modules hard to reverse engineer.
