 \caption{Results of the \texttt{scipy.spatial.cKDTree.query} benchmark from the introduction of \texttt{cKDTree} to the release of SciPy~1.0. The benchmark generates a $k$-d tree from \num{10000} uniformly distributed points in an $m$-dimensional unit hypercube, then finds the nearest (Euclidean) neighbor in the tree for each of \num{1000}~query points. Each marker in the figure indicates the execution time of the benchmark for a commit in the master branch of SciPy. Substantial performance improvements were realized when \texttt{cKDTree} was fully Cythonized and again when it was rewritten in C++. The tree was generated without application of toroidal topology (\texttt{boxsize=None}), and tests were performed by Airspeed Velocity 0.4 using Python~2.7, NumPy~1.8.2, and Cython versions 0.27.3, 0.21.1, and 0.18 (for improved backward compatibility).}
