As shown by member on SciPy ML this is wrong table, because dot() in Octave
and NumPy are different operations. In Octave, result is vector. Right operator
in Octave would be '*', and this is updated table:

======================
Octave         : 0.766
Cygwin/ATLAS   : 0.843
Windows/ATLAS* : 1.29
Windows/MKL    : 2.37
----------------------

Now this are expected results, and nothing special to be looked at.
I'm posting it only as correction

Sorry for previous misinformation

However, question about overperfomed eig() is still valid
