Phoronix: Intel Contributes AVX-512 Optimizations To Numpy, Yields Massive Speedups

Intel has contributed AVX-512 optimizations to upstream Numpy. For those using Numpy as this leading Python library for numerical computing, newer Intel CPUs with AVX-512 capabilities can enjoy major speed-ups in the range of 14~32x faster...
