===== Original message from Vidar Gundersen | Mon, 10 Oct 2005:
there are one slide (page 18) in a presentation 'Python for
Scientific Computing' by Eric Jones, which shows a comparison
of vector multiplication speed between matlab and python.
i found another presentation using the same material:

http://www.iwce.nanohub.org/talks/python/python_talk1.pdf
see pages 58-59.
