Can you whip up a small example, starting with the current implementation?

This sounds like work.  ;-)

I'll shoot for putting something together this weekend. I think Tim is right; we've been talking around in circles, and we need something concrete.

I also think that a conjugate gradient algorithm, say, is high-level and doesn't require iterating over rows (or columns). We should also look at (at least) one other algorithm, one that iterates over rows. I would suggest Gaussian elimination, unless this is too obviously a high-level functionality that should be part of the extension module.
