They +never cause dynamic memory applications and the simple operations on them are +as fast as is possible at least for sizes up to 4 (see below). +Its dynamic-size classes are more flexible and suitable for larger sizes. +Both fixed-size and dynamic-size classes use the same underlying C++ code, +thanks to a curiously recurring template pattern. + +WWW: http://eigen.tuxfamily.org/ |
