Hi Ralf, Thank you so much for your answer. I finally figured out that the problem was because Numpy 1.9 was not linked to BLAS. I do not know why because I simply installed numpy 1.9 via the commands: apt-get install python3-numpy If anybody has the same problem, you may want to take a look in

Hello All, there seems to be a performance issue with the covariance function in numpy 1.9 and later. Code example: *np.cov(np.random.randn(700,37000))* In numpy 1.8, this line of code requires 4.5755 seconds. In numpy 1.9 and later, the same line of code requires more than 30.3709 s execution t
