Hi,
It would probably be useful to take a look at our HPC Challenge
benchmarks (in particular LU) which does this kind of thing. See
https://x10.svn.sf.net/svnroot/x10/benchmarks/trunk/hpcc.
It would probably make sense at some point to include some calls to C
implementations of basic BLAS operations as built-ins in the X10 standard
library. We haven't seriously looked at this yet. I think it might
require us to do some packaging changes so that X10 would still work on
platforms that didn't have BLAS, but if BLAS was available then an
additional .so could be loaded that would interface with the platform BLAS
libraries.
