No speed gains from Cython

Question

I am trying to define a function that contains an inner loop for simulating an integral.

The problem is speed. Evaluating the function once can take up to 30 seconds on

Answer 1

Will a profiler help you figure out which part is slow? I like to run programs using the standard library profiler:

python -O -m cProfile -o profile.out MYAPP.py

and then view the output from that in the 'RunSnakeRun' GUI:

runsnake profile.out

A RunSnakeRun can be installed from here: http://www.vrplumber.com/programming/runsnakerun/
