On 1 & 2, you are correct for wherever blas/lapack are used, 
which is in a lot of numpy, lubeck, R, etc. However, mir-glas is 
intended to be an alternative to blas, though I don't think much 
work has been done recently.

On 3, I didn't have time to look into the Julia results, but 
someone above made the comment that Julia was optimizing away the 
calculation itself. Dennis also had some interesting points above.
