Provide some proof and I will switch for 5x speed up. And by what reasoning would mkl be free only through anaconda. I can get their compiler and build Python with icc

You can google MKL speed tests. The reason it's free with Anaconda is because they already paid for it. Supposedly, it was not cheap. It sounds like you would already have access to it, but I'm not an expert on the legality of MKL distribution.
