A. Using the Snowflake Python Connector's 'execute_stream' method to stream data in chunks instead of loading the entire dataset into memory at once. This reduces memory consumption and improves performance, especially for very large datasets.

B. Converting the Python stored procedure to a SQL stored procedure, as SQL is generally faster for data manipulation tasks within Snowflake due to its optimized query engine.

C. Leveraging Pandas DataFrames within the Python stored procedure to perform data manipulation tasks in a vectorized manner. Pandas provides efficient data structures and functions for data processing, which can significantly improve performance compared to using standard Python loops.

D. Increasing the warehouse size for the Snowflake account where the stored procedure is running. A larger warehouse provides more compute resources, which can speed up data processing tasks, including Python stored procedures.

E. Replacing all Python loops with recursive SQL queries to improve performance
