Description

  • Passing larger than 4-byte values by reference to avoid copy-on-move and temporary objects.
  • const size_t* const is but a way to point for aliasing and therefore "restrict" optimisations and use. (themself leading to potential openmp "optimisations spot")
  • "int getStuff(const size_t arg)" is more developper safeguard and code documentation than real perf. (preventing people using args as local vars and easing code reading, by pointing possible optimisation when code evolves)
