The Intel Distribution for Python 2017 Beta https://software.intel.com/en-us/python-distribution is available for Windows, Linux, and Mac OS for Python 2.7 and 3.5.
"The Beta product adds new Python packages like scikit-learn, mpi4py, numba, conda, tbb (Python interfaces to Intel® Threading Building Blocks) and pyDAAL (Python interfaces to Intel® Data Analytics Acceleration Library). The Beta also delivers performance improvements for NumPy/SciPy through linking with performance libraries like Intel® MKL, Intel® Message Passing Interface (Intel® MPI), Intel® TBB and Intel® DAAL." I just installed Intel Python today. Has anyone tried it? Does it run your programs faster than the usual CPython? -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
