Great! I will redo the timings in the next round of manuscript corrections (I already submitted last weeks results yesterday) for the mahotas paper. I might try to speed up things on mahotas' side too :) A little friendly competition always gets users better software. Best, Luis On 09/02/2012 03:41 PM, Stéfan van der Walt wrote:

I made a timing comparison between mahotas & scikits-image.

operation | mahotas | pymorph | skimage ------------+----------+----------+--------- dilate | 11.44 | 8.93 | 41.59

With the latest versions of skimage and mahotas, I have:

| mahotas | skimage ----------+------------+-------- erode | 9.60 | 16.18 dilate | 11.69 | 8.01 open | 20.53 | 16.16

Thanks to Johannes Schönberger for the speed-ups.
