Can you try to benchmark your ATLAS library using a simple C or Fortran
program to check if the problem is in Numpy, or in Atlas itself.
For comparison,
gfortran -o test test.f90 -lblas
time ./test # ATLAS
-> 0.55 s
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libblas.so.3.0 time ./test # reference BLAS
-> 5.6 s
test.f90
--------
program main
integer, parameter :: n = 1000
double precision, dimension(n,n) :: a, b, c
integer :: i, j
do i = 1, n
do j = 1,n
a(i,j) = i+j
b(i,j) = i-j
end do
end do
call dgemm('N', 'N', n, n, n, 1d0, a, n, b, n, 0d0, c, n)
end program main
