If you do the meat of the processing using C data types and C operations wherever possible, there should be very little difference. It all depends on how careful and diligent you want to be. So, rough estimates would be: in the best case, no difference; in the worst case, not much better than pure Python. It's hard to say much more than that. -- Greg _______________________________________________ Cython-dev mailing list [email protected] http://codespeak.net/mailman/listinfo/cython-dev
