I did try Cython when I was trying to figure out what to do about the slow
speed.  My initial attempt showed no speedup at all.  The documentation
told me that I needed to change the data types to special C-like types, so
it seemed to me that it would become half way between Python and C and
would be as cumbersome to develop as C.  So at that point, I just rewrote
it in C.

Anyway, now that I've been told how to install libraries in PyPy, I'll
probably be able to use PyPy if I need speedups in future.
