Hi Sam,

I am using the version that John installed on Pleiades.
I got some other unrelated problems with profiling before and John was kind enough to 
revert back to an older version (I think). Anyway, this is what I got:

/u/jhwise/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/yt-2.4-py2.7-linux-x86_64.egg

Separately, I will try your transpose fix and will let you know.

But the KDTree was really smoking fast (50-100 times compared to without) that
makes things very efficient. I would like to thank you for that.

Thanks very much,
Renyue
