Well, the thanks for this go to Steffen (who wrote the text above and the
test, not me ;-).

Concerning the speed the thanks go to you:

Results (in usec per loop):
                                     sin-array            mod-array
 Numeric                                34                  7
 numpy 0.9.9.2732                       56                 92
 numpy 0.9.9.2732 + math                42
 Numeric + math                          8

*and now*

Results (in usec per loop):
                                     sin-array            mod-array
 Numeric                                33                  7
 numpy 0.9.9.2749                       30                 17.6
 numpy 0.9.9.2749 + math                13
 Numeric + math                          8


Bingo! Only numpy 0.9.9.2749 + math  is slower than
Numeric+math by a factor 1.6 and mod-array is 2.5 times slower
than numpy.
It would be nice if you could have a look at the module operation,
if possible ...

Many thanks,

Arnd
