For scientific computing this is better than D inline asm:

Based on a quick look at the website, that looks _extremely_ unlikely to
be true.
This seems like an extravagant claim: "CorePy. . . regularly outperforms compiled
languages for common computational tasks (as hand-coded assembly often does)." They
are talking about interpreted assembly code, correct?
It's generated during runtime and then ran straight.
