Not necessarily obvious, but you've hit the old problem that MATLAB 
stores arrays in column major order (first index varies most rapidly, 
borrowed from Fortran), while Numeric and numarray store arrays in row 
major order (borrowed from C).  The only way to avoid the transpose() 
calls is to rework your algorithms to work on arrays stored in row major 
order.
