Well, if the ticket is for "investigation", that certainly has been done. Some conversion of ctypes to Cython has been done (Atom, Element, Residue) and more will be done as needed. I think molarray will remain ctypes though, since the vector operations are not heavily impacted by the ctypes overhead, and there is no obvious way to implement them in Cython.
