I meant "numeric is slower than numpy", that is, modern numpy (0.9.8) appears to lose out majorly to numeric. This doesn't make much sense, so I figured there was something wrong with my benchmark, or my numpy install, and wanted to check if others had seen this sort of behavior. ...Eric On Fri, 2006-06-02 at 15:27 +0200, Joris De Ridder wrote:

You mean the other way around?
I also tested numpy vs numarray, and numarray seems to be roughly 3 times faster than numpy for your particular testcase.
