Thanks! When I tried this before, I thought compilation was stuck in an infinite loop and gave up after about a minute. But you're right, it works. Though on my machine, this took two and a half minutes to compile (ten times as long as compiling a small convnet). For 10 recurrence steps, that's weird, right? And the TensorFlow thing above runs instantly.

Agreed. Theano has trouble dealing efficiently with very deeply nested graphs.
