What sorts of functions take advantage of MKL?
Linear Algebra (equation solving)?
Something like dot product?
exp, log, trig of matrix?
basic numpy arithmetic? (add matrixes)

Hi,
I think you have at least linear algebra (lapack) and dot. Basic
arithmetics will not benefit, for expm, logm... I don't know.

You also get highly optimized BLAS routines, like dgemm and degemv.
And does numpy/scipy just then automatically use them? When I do a matrix
multiply, for example?

For the matrix multiplication or array dot, you use BLAS3 functions as they
are more or less the same. For the rest, nothing inside Numpy uses BLAS or
LAPACK explicitelly IIRC. You have to do the calls yourself.

For the matrix multiplication
(directly, or via a numpy/scipy interface).
