> Test matrix decompositions for speed vs. numerical stability for Gaussians

> We currently use SVD for inverting the Gaussian's covariance matrix and 
> computing the determinant.  SVD is numerically stable but slow.  We could 
> experiment with Cholesky, etc. to figure out a better option, or a better 
> option for certain settings.
