As far as I know cython has no explicit OpenMP support, but it *may*
be possible to get it

Will Cython be compatible with OpenMP? I tried with weave some time back
and failed miserably. Has anyone tried with ctypes?

It's not so much an abjection (I think), but the fact that pyrex/Cython
really are different beasts, with different goals.

Hi all,
after the Scipy/Sage Days 8 meeting, we were all very impressed by the
progress made by Cython. For those not familiar with it, Cython:
http://www.cython.org/
is an evolved version of Pyrex (which is used by numpy and scipy) with
lots of improvements. We'd like to position Cython
