[Numpy-discussion] testing with amd libm/acml

[Neal Becker]

I'm trying to do a bit of benchmarking to see if amd libm/acml will help me.

I got an idea that instead of building all of numpy/scipy and all of my custom 
modules against these libraries, I could simply use:

LD_PRELOAD=/opt/amdlibm-3.0.2/lib/dynamic/libamdlibm.so:/opt/acml5.2.0/gfortran64/lib/libacml.so 
<my program here>

I'm hoping that both numpy and my own dll's then will take advantage of these 
libraries.

Do you think this will work?
