I would also encourage you to take a look at Numba. It is an LLVM based JIT
compiler for Python bytecode, written for hardcore numerical algorithms in
Python. It can often achieve the same performance as -O2 in C after a short
burn-in while inferring the types of the arguments and variables. Using it
is mostly as easy as adding an @numba.jit decorator to the function we want
to accelerate. Numba is rapidly becoming what Google's long dead swallow
should have been.
