Also, when you are using numpy, you are using python, and for
Perhaps compiling python itself with icc might give a useful speedup. Apparently somebody managed this for python 2.3 in 2003: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/c++-sig/2003-October/005824.html --George Nurser. _______________________________________________ Numpy-discussion mailing list Numpy-discussion@scipy.org http://projects.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
