Numpy with eigen c++ binding
it seems like numpy is moving toward c++ implementation, so is there any plan to have eigen c++ library also inline with numpy to get better performance? is there any ongoing work happening around this?

NumPy does not currently use eigen and I am not aware of any plans to do so.

It looks as though pybind11 can serve as a bridge between NumPy and Eigen: https://pybind11.readthedocs.io/en/stable/advanced/cast/eigen.html

What would be the point? You would need to add support in Eigen for most of what makes Numpy Numpy. Eigen is really about 2D, Tensors are not even close to be something working properly (not even talking about the dynamic number of dimensions that breaks), and I'm not talking about broadcasting rules.

FWIW xtensor is supposed to be more of a drop in C++ replacement..
