I find it surprising that ublas can outperform math++. Nevertheless, I
think that, once you're handling matrices larger than 10x10 you should
consider calling BLAS (preferably vendor-tuned BLAS or ATLAS). During
the review, there was some discussion on the performance. Martin
Weiser for instance made this graph :

Of course you need to take into account that much emphasis has been on
the interface, I figure performance optimisation will now (after the
review) be looked at in greater detail (I can't speak for Joerg and
Mathias of course but I figure they're on vacation so I wanted to give
you this feedback already anyhow). Also, you can use the BLAS-bindings
for ublas that are in the sandbox. I've only added a few BLAS-calls up
till now but will extend this to cover all of BLAS in the future. I
use these bindings myself in my projects and this provides me the rich
functionality of ublas with the performance of ATLAS.
