Are you aware of Dan J. Bernstein's library?: http://cr.yp.to/djbfft.html According to his benchmarks (from 1999?) it is faster than FFTW. I don't know whether that's still the case, a quick search did turn up http://projects.scipy.org/pipermail/scipy-dev/2002-August/001107.html which suggests

Thanks to everybody for the answers, For the moment I think that I will try to slightly expand http://ofb.net/~wnoise/haskell/FFTW/ that was pointed out to me by Patrik Sellin with respect to Dan J. Bernstein's library http://cr.yp.to/djbfft.html I was not aware of it, but I would like to
