I am sorry Sturla but I am new in python and I cannot follow you on
this... hopefully someone else will! I am now combining the R and the
Python code and trying to scale up the process! Thank you very much

Great!
By the way, using OpenBLAS will be fast as well.
On Mac OS X Mavericks it seems Accelerate framewo
Thank you very much! Already working!
However, contrasting with the results obtained by Sturla, I get the
fastest result with cholesky, parallel method:
bash-4.1$ python mahalk.py
Similar result to scipy.spatial.distance.mahalanobis: true
Similar results with and without parallel execution: true
If you're affiliated with a university, Anaconda has free academic
licenses that include MKL and their optimized builds.

That is great, thanks! I do not have the mkl module (it isn't free,
right?) but with your script the calculation is approx. 10 times
faster than in R. Is there a way to increase performance using Cython,
BLAS and LAPACK? Could you possibly show some examples of how to do
it?
Thank you very much ag
