ok so we'll say that this is work in progress... At least the discussion was constructive :)

Yes we can (TM). We can use our ball tree to select only the data points from the training set that contribute significantly to a given test point. The problem is that with this strategy, it is harder to vectorize the 'predict' on the test data. Whether scipy's default behavior or the one I am suggesting is the best depends the 'shape' of you data: number of training point, number of testing points, and number of dimensions.
That means that we need a heuristic to decide which strategy to apply.
Also, grouping the test points that are close together to select a common 'active set' for them, and thus vectorizing on that bunch the predict would help.
There is some work to do to get a decent KDE :)
