Oh, I was interested in the performance comparisons. I have used Boost UBLAS a
lot and just came to know of Eigen. I wanted to know what worked well/best on
my platform. I usually develop prototypes with UBLAS and then move to
optimized FORTRAN LAPACK towards later stages when deploying production code.
The BTL benchmarks accompanying Eigen seem to interface to many BLAS backends
and I thought it would be useful to see how they compared.
I am also writing a set of specialized routines not available in BLAS and at
some point I thought I could test their performance against candidates built
into the Eigen BTL.
