True ... it also made me think of Python, which is designed to use
parallelized numpy (etc.) libraries, optimized for your platform.
Can use all the hardware threads on your machine, as well as make
good use of vector extensions such as AVX.  A 64-bit (x86-64)
version will give best use of vector processing, in my
experience.
