Hi, just my 2 cents: maybe if you need such optimization level it would be 
better to write the core routine(s) in a C module and import it into Pyrex.

If you need all the speed you can, you are going to use C data types in Pyrex 
anyway, and you should be asking to duplicate everything that can be 
implemented in C (probably in the same way it is implemented in C) into Pyrex, 
which is probably not feasible.
