Should I drop this special code and always compute both eigenvalues and eigenvectors? This would substantially reduce code size, but might increase computational cost in the case where only eigenvalues are needed.
I often need the eigenvalues only, but in my experience the main causes for slowness is when I start using more memory than is physically available. (My machine starts sounding like it does when I run S.) I would guess that reducing code size may be more valuable than the specialized code.
