Is the difference because of mutability versus immutability, or because of C code in Numpy versus Matlab code? Are you comparing bananas and pears? Without knowing what the test consisted of, and what it actually measures, this comparison is meaningless. -- Steven -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
