Description: Numba is an Open Source NumPy-aware optimizing compiler for Python 
        sponsored by Continuum Analytics, Inc.  It uses the
        remarkable LLVM compiler infrastructure to compile Python syntax to
        machine code.
        
        It is aware of NumPy arrays as typed memory regions and so can speed-up
        code using NumPy arrays.  Other, less well-typed code will be translated 
        to Python C-API calls effectively removing the "interpreter" but not removing
        the dynamic indirection.  
        
        Numba is also not a tracing jit.  It *compiles* your code before it gets
        run either using run-time type information or type information you provide
        in the decorator.
        
        Numba is a mechanism for producing machine code from Python syntax and typed
        data structures such as those that exist in NumPy. 
        
        Dependencies:
        
          * LLVM 3.1
          * llvm-py (from llvmpy/llvmpy fork)
          * numpy
          * Meta (from numba/Meta fork)
          * Cython
        
        * Compile LLVM 3.1
        
        wget http://llvm.org/releases/3.1/llvm-3.1.src.tar.gz 
        tar zxvf llvm-3.1.src.tar.gz
        ./configure --enable-optimized
        # Be sure your compiler architecture is same as version of Python you will use
        #  e.g. -arch i386 or -arch x86_64.  It might be best to be explicit about this.
        make install
        
        * Clone LLVM-py from github
        
        git clone https://github.com/llvmpy/llvmpy.git
