Cool! A ready OO-wrapper. Thanks.
I agree, the best-performance GPGPU code needs fine tuning (although
any kind of computation on giant arrays of floats is much faster on a
GPU, then on a multi-threaded CPU).
That's why i want my data structures and computation to be
fine-tunable in respect of hard

Well GPGPU only comes with big performance gains if you hand-tune the

I would then use that graphics memory allocator with built-in arrays
and send those arrays over to some image processing algorithms.
Having such awesome integration with graphics hardware will lure lots
of graphics programmers over to D.
The back-end for that allocator will probably be OpenCL, as

I'm asking for std.allocator to be used in the language to be able to
use graphics card memory when doing image processing.
I would like to create allocators for allocating graphics card memory.
Perhaps even texture memory.
This would allow one to directly operate on pixels on the graphics
card and
I assume when the allocators come along, the flexibility of those
constructs will increase, no?
Also, wouldn't it be cleaner to allow reuse of the incredibly
convenient syntax of built-in arrays and enable one to replace it's
allocators?
Some properties, maybe? Something like this:
-
int[] arr
Using Array!T in place of T[] would work, if you don't mind malloc/free.
Also, overriding new and delete (and delete itself) are going -- relying
on them is not advisable. Use emplace and clear, instead.
I have a question about switching to 100% manual memory management.
I know how it should be done with structs and classes: override the
new and delete.
But i don't know how to do it for arrays, associative arrays, stack
frames for delegates and all other instances of implicit memory
allocation.
