Description

redux is much more efficient with fftw3 based on my test.

numextension is no longer compiled with fftw (see r10884 ).
I tried PyFFTW3 (http://launchpad.ned/pyfftw/ to wrap it for python. built fine on my Mac (MacOS 10.6; Python 2.6; fftw 3.2.2) but could not do so on cronus3 (CentOS 5.5; Python 2.4; fftw 3.1.2),

error message:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "setup.py", line 27, in ?
import ctypes
ImportError: No module named ctypes

What to do?
ctypes is new in python 2.5

Anchi, Jim, can we close this out since we are no longer targeting 5.x for Redux?

Yes. fftw is not required although beneficial to 2.2 or any version of appion and leginon. Can be listed as a known bug, because people do have the option to install python 2.5 and up.
