Investigate using ReLAPACK #43

Open jakirkham opened 6 years ago

jakirkham commented 6 years ago

OpenBLAS 0.20.0 added support for building the LAPACK portion with ReLAPACK. For a few reasons, ReLAPACK is a nice option. Could also be a nice option to explore on Windows, which could help things like a Windows SciPy build progress. ( https://github.com/conda-forge/scipy-feedstock/pull/78 )

  1. Very performant
  2. Minimal tuning needed
  3. Implemented in straight C
  4. Open Source with a permissive license (MIT)
  5. Packaged in OpenBLAS's source code
  6. Supports the full LAPACK API
