Did you post your implementation to the mailing list?

I highly doubt Python or Matlab beats q, but I'm biased.

I'm not sure I understand the comparison to a "native implementation". You mean C? How about assembly? Why would you compare an interpreted language to those? Just use C, if you can.

If you don't tell us exactly what you were trying to do and how you approached it, then there's no reason to give any weight to your comment.

In other words, where's _your_ citation? Give us the problem you were trying to solve.

If you do not give anyone else a chance to offer a solution, then you never really know if you have tried the best approach.
