Yes, I should do that, but I want to optimize the compiler flags first, and try to get SciPy to build. > > So the rpm version only takes ~17% longer to run this program.

A few minutes ago I compiled a C math benchmark with : icc -o3 -parallel -xT and it ran 2.8x as fast as it did when compiled with gcc -o3. In fact, it ran at a little over a gigaflop, which is a higher speed than anyone has reported for this benchmark. > Congrats on completing the gauntlet, Thank. It's the 2nd time. I eventually succeed with an earlier version as well, thanks to Travis. -rex _______________________________________________ Numpy-discussion mailing list [email protected] http://projects.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
