Re: [Numpy-discussion] patches to reduce import costs

2008/7/31 Andrew Dalke <dalke@dalkescientific.com>:

I don't see a place to submit patches. Is there a patch manager for numpy?

Here's a patch to defer importing 'tempfile' until needed. I previously mentioned one other place that didn't need tempfile. With this there is no 'import tempfile' during 'import numpy'

This improves startup by about 7%

Thanks for the patch. Applied in r5588. Cheers Stéfan
