Eigen's problem is clear : the interface is ugly and over-complicated
for the task at hand.

why doing

m.row(i) = ...

when

m(_,i) = ..

is possible and do the same thing at same speed. This is an example
among other, I already talk about that while discussing boost.SIMD.

The Eigen library sells itself at aimed at C++ developper. Again , this
is a mistake for a linear algebra library.
