Summary

GotoBLAS – "the, currently, fastest implementation of the Basic Linear Algebra Subroutines (BLAS)". The advantage is fast calculation. Note that the actual performance depends in part on the code from which you call the GotoBLAS subroutine(s) and on the combination of architecture and operating system under which you are running. Your own tuning here can make a big difference. The GotoBLAS have various interfaces for both commercial and noncommercial compilers, including GNU g77, Intel, PGI, PathScale, IBM, SUN Studio and Compaq. The GotoBLAS source code was contributed by many before FOSS licenses were established, there are both free and commercial versions/implementations available.
