5 seconds waiting on a home internet connection and a numpy install.... Nice.
That's pretty neat. Now if we can get the windows versions to be as easy.
Indeed -- where are we on that? Wasn't there more or less a consensus to put up Windows Wheels with SSE2?
Or did we decide that was going to break a few too many systems...
I also recall that some folks were working with a new BLAS (OpenBLAS ? ) that might support multi-architecture binaries...that would be a great solution.
From what Julian said elsewhere, we can completely rely on SSE2 being
From [2] it looks like Windows XP 64-bit is about 20 times less common
In another conversation it looked as though OpenBLAS was not robust enough for a standard distribution. present for 64 bit, correct? [1] than 32 bit XP, meaning likely something less than 2 percent of Windows users overall. So - can we build windows 64 bit SSE2 wheels for windows 7? With ATLAS for example? It sounds like they would be fairly safe. Cheers, Matthew [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X86-64#Architectural_features [2] http://store.steampowered.com/hwsurvey?platform=pc
