[SciPy-user] How can I improve the efficiency linalg.eig with respect to certain properties of the matrices

[Pietro Berkes]

We have written some f2py wrappers for the most important LAPACK routines 
concerning standard and generalized symmetrical eigenvalue problems. I have 
no time now, but I could mail something on this argument next week.
