float array pointer pass

Open getnamo opened this issue 8 years ago • 1 comments

A main optimization, we need a way to declare a buffer of given length and pass that to python without copying, then reinterpret it as a float array in python. Essentially passing a float array with no copying.

This would in theory allow for streaming high amount of data through input/output streams
