Could you also add a comparison with SciPy? People often say it's just
fine for scientific computing.
That's just BLAS (so could be mkl, could be openBLAS, could be netlib,
etc. just depends on the system and compilation choices) under the hood,
you'd just see a small overhead from the python wrapping. Basically,
everyone uses a BLAS or Eigen.
I see, thanks. To the extent the Python-specific overheads are
measurable, it might make sense to include the benchmark.
An Eigen comparison would be interesting.
That'd be awesome especially since the article text refers to it.
