it looks like you could use weave.blitz() without much change to your code. or weave.inline() if needed. see this page: http://scipy.org/PerformancePython On 12/3/06, fsenkel@verizon.net <fsenkel@verizon.net> wrote:
Hello,
I'm taking a CFD class, one of the codes I wrote runs very slow. When I look at hotshot is says the function below is the problem. Since this is an explicit step, the for loops are only traversed once, so I think it's caused by memory usage, but I'm not sure if it's the local variables or the loop? I can vectorize the inner loop, would declaring the data structures in the calling routine and passing them in be a better idea than using local storage?
I'm new at python and numpy, I need to look at how to get profiling information for the lines within a function.
Thank you,
Frank
