[Numpy-discussion] NumPy EIG much slower than MATLAB EIG

[Kamesh Krishnamurthy]

Hello all,

I profiled NumPy EIG and MATLAB EIG on the same Macbook pro, and both were
linking to the Accelerate framework BLAS. NumPy turns out to be ~4x slower.
I've posted details on Stackoverflow:

Can someone please let me know the reason for the performance gap?

Thanks,
Kamesh
