Hi Maciej,

I have applied for clearance to publicly upload the code. I will upload it once 
I get the permission.

Regards
Yash

Hi Yash

Is your software open source? I'm happy to check it out for you

I think the c-level profiling for vmprof is relatively new, you would need to 
use pypy nightly in order to get that level of insight.
Additionally, we're working on cpyext improvements *right now* stay tuned.

If there is a good case for speeding up numpy, we can get it a lot faster than 
it is right now and seek some funding for that. Neural networks might be one of 
those!

Best regards,
Maciej Fijalkowski
