Can that be made quicker? Not easily. "lib" is first imported in "add_newdocs". Personally, I want to get rid of add_newdocs and move the docstrings into the correct locations.
Where would that be, in the C-code? The reason for add_newdocs is to avoid writing docstrings in C-code which is a pain.
It's possible to clean up the code so this loop doesn't exist, and fix things so that fewer things are imported when some environment variable is set, but it doesn't look easy. Modules depend on other modules a bit too much to make me happy.
I've removed this loop. Are there other places in numpy.core that depend on numpy.lib?
Thanks for the very helpful analysis.
