Pybrain is very slow. Several attempts have been made to get a
performant multi-layer perceptron into scikit-learn, but none has been
merged into the master branch yet, let alone into a recent release.
The latest attempt is [1]; if you like to live on the edge and help us
finish and debug experimental code, feel free to check it out.
