This is already good code.

AFAIK the product can be sparse - but it may be dense with the current
implementation. You should check whether compressed_matrix performs
better or worse than mapped_vector_of_mapped_vector. If you really want
maximal performance you have to write a custom version of inner_prod(
prod(A, v), v ) as it was done for " y += prod(A,x) " in operation.hpp.

PS: There have been some bugs with the product/assignement of mvomv
which should be fixed in the current CVS head but not in the boost
1.33.x release.
