Some experiments seemed to confirm this on some processors, but it then turned out those were in error. At least that's my recollection. Because of that, and because PyTables is, as far as I know, the major user of numexpr, I suspect I'd be fine putting those changes in now. I say "suspect" since it's been a long time since I looked at the relevant patches, and I should probably look at those again before I commit myself. I just haven't had the free time and motivation to go back and look at the patches. I can't speak for David though. -- . __ . |-\ . .
