This is a nicely written paper by some scientific computing person
about using Cython.   See below.  Also, this link is better than the
one given by the author below, since he messed up the file name.

Subject: [Cython] Paper about Cython
To: cython-...@codespeak.net


Hi list,

I wanted to make you aware of a paper[1] that we have written at Simula
Research Laboratory in Oslo, Norway. The paper will be presented at
MekIT 09 - Conference on Computational Mechanics in Trondheim in a
couple of weeks. In this paper we compare Cython with similar packages
with regard to execution time.

It must be noted that the time for the arithmetic mean for Cython has
decreased since the paper was accepted, as Dag Sverre pointed me to the
additional argument 'mode' for the arrays. This reduces the time for
Cython from 1.6 to 1.3 compared to the pure Fortran implementation. I
apologize for any mistakes concerning Cython in the paper, as I'm sure
the developers have some comments about stuff I've missed.

We will be following the development of Cython further (in particular
the Fortran integration) thanks for an excellent package so far!
