ok. now which version of scipy (scipy.__version__) do you use (you may have posted it, but I missed it)? Not so long ago, there was an effort by Nathan Bell and others reimplementing sparsetools + scipy.sparse to get better usability and performance. My (almost latest) version is 0.5.3.dev2860.
Robert, did David find the source of his performance problems? I suspect that he was using an older version of sparsetools, but I'd like to know for sure.
I am not sure either, but I think the slowness he perceived was due to using the version 0.5.2. David, did you try your benchmarks with the latest SVN version? r.
