Intel Python Distribution
Introduction
Intel Python Distribution contains scipy and numpy packages built
using the Intel Math Kernel Libraries (MKL) which are meant to be very
efficient and automatically parallelise what they can, so your python
code should run faster on a machine with lots of core (eg mensa).
