I ran a series of matrix diagonalization benchmarks, and on my Intel i7-2600 at
work OpenBLAS is 9.6% faster than ATLAS, which is rather notable.

Furthermore, OpenBLAS also can thread more operations than ATLAS such as
diagonalization, which makes it 42% faster when using 4 threads. (Yes, this is
bad scaling.)
