Hmmm, I didn't know that addition of n numbers could be performed
simultaneously - ok then, constant time matrix multiplication, given
enough processors.  I still haven't seen any hard data on limits
to speed because of communications problems.  If it seems like
there are limits but you can't prove it, then maybe you haven't
discovered the cleverest way to do it yet...

ps The space cost of constant or log time matrix mults is of course
   ridiculous

pps Perhaps this should move to net.applic?
