The alignement issue is really orthogonal to the calloc one, so IMO this shouldn't be discussed here (and FWIW I don't think we should expose those: alignement only matters either for concurrency or SIMD instructions, and I don't think we should try to standardize this kind of API, it's way to special-purpose (then we'd have to think about huge pages, etc...). Whereas calloc is a simple and immediately useful addition, not only for Numpy but also CPython). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue21233> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
