I'm guessing you're alluding to the fact that diff(nonzero(x)) gives you a list of the run lengths of Falses in x (except possibly for the first one). If you have a fondness for the baroque, you can try numpy.where(numpy.convolve(x,[1,]*N,'valid')==N) For large N this can even use Fourier-domain convolution (though you'd then have to be careful about round-off error). Silly, really, it's O(NM) or O(N log M) instead of O(N).
