It isn't either on my computer. While we are talking about import timings, there was a system for lazy import at some point, right (this is when I first tried python and numpy a few years ago, so I may mix with something else) ? Because we could win between 20 and 40 % time of import by lazily importing a few modules (namely urllib, which I guess it not often used, and already takes around 20-30 ms; inspect and compiler are takinh a long time too, but maybe those are always needed, I have not checked carefully). Maybe this would be complicated to implement for numpy, though. cheers, David _______________________________________________ Numpy-discussion mailing list [email protected] http://projects.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
