Building support for matrix datatypes and operations (arithmetic, eigenvalues, and factorization) in PostgreSQL. I think I will use the Gnu Scientific Library, but I am still looking around at options with looser licenses.



Try LAPACK. Incredibly fast, and a minimal license. You'll have to deal with FORTRAN, though.


I don't want to write my own binary dataformats, and I don't want to deal with FORTRAN.


Eigen doesn't help with the first problem, but it does with the second - written in C++ with some nice expression template magic for efficiency. Comparable performance to LAPACK and LGPL licensed.
