That's not what I see.  Here's an example that shows the a linear 
increase in time:

In [112]: x = np.zeros((1000,1000), dtype=bool)

In [113]: y = np.zeros((1000,1000), dtype=bool)

In [114]: z = np.zeros((1000,1000), dtype=bool)

In [115]: x[0,0] = 1

In [116]: y[500,0] = 1

In [117]: z[-1,-1] = 1

In [118]: %timeit x.any()
100000 loops, best of 3: 4 us per loop

In [119]: %timeit y.any()
1000 loops, best of 3: 566 us per loop

In [120]: %timeit z.any()
1000 loops, best of 3: 1.13 ms per loop
