Just took the new engine in Python-Blosc2 4.0 for a spin, and the performance results are quite awesome. Processing a 400 MB array:

🔹 NumPy baseline: 146 ms
🔹 Blosc2 (on NumPy arrays): 73.1 ms (2x faster)
🔹 Blosc2 (on native Blosc2 arrays): 15.1 ms (**9.6x faster!**) 🤯

The best part? It fully supports NumPy's array and ufunc interfaces. High performance with zero friction! 🏎️💨
