Yes, joel could you please give us additional details on what is wrong with GLAS.
Well, does it generate SIMD code when available, openMP ? MPI code ? address GPU or Cell processor ? Can I tweak the tiling strategy, the unrolling factor of expressions ? What's the added value beside being a E.T based BLAS/LAPACK wrapper ?
Its performance makes it very promising Performances is not the problem. All those Expressions Tempaltes libraries can't do anythign but get good performances. As I say problem is level of user interface. It's good for C++ savvy people, not for general, common scientist who need to write C++ but dunno a lot about. As i said earlier too, it's a matter of tastes and philosophy so I can't get any arguments out of that.
