Research direction

Start by reproducing the reported @time measurements for cheb2leg with random vectors of sizes 1,000, 10,000, and 100,000. Trace the cheb2leg entry point to identify why runtime scales so poorly, then compare the revised timings against the reported results; the issue does not name a test or source file.
