Sounds good. It would be great if someone could submit  a pull request
with a proof of concept implementation of one of our cython compiled
extensions so that we can discuss the details on a concrete
scikit-learn specific example.

(BTW: please do not do this on the minibatch kmeans code as I am
currently refactoring it in a branch to make it faster than the
sofia-ml reference implementation :)
