I just uploaded the compressed disc images *dmg including Octave.app 2.9.15 for MacOSX to the Sourceforge's server.

I've just installed Octave.app 2.9.15, and I see that the vector norm functions, norm(x) and norm(x, 1), are now considerably faster than their equivalent expressions,
   sqrt(sum( x .* x )) and sum(abs( x )).

This is a big change from octave-2.9.14! Thanks to whomever is responsible!

Next problem: make norm(x, 1) faster than max(sum(abs(x))) for matrices x.
