I think you are quite wrong here. I have worked with optical engineers who needed to calculate grating numbers for their lenses. If they can have a calculation program that runs in 1 minute instead of 2 they can effectively double their output during the day (since they run calculations hundreds to thousand times a day to get the most optimal results with minor tweaks). I think you are being a bit too easy on hand waving here that mere minute runtimes are not noticeable. -- Jeroen Ruigrok van der Werven <asmodai(-at-)in-nomine.org> / asmodai イェルーン ラウフロック ヴァン デル ウェルヴェン http://www.in-nomine.org/ | http://www.rangaku.org/ | GPG: 2EAC625B When we have not what we like, we must like what we have... -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
