The calls to ipp functions seemed to work both ways with no difference in timing.</DIV> Fri, 17 Dec 2004 06:37:22 GMT chris-ruth 2004-12-17T06:37:22Z https://community.intel.com/t5/Intel-Integrated-Performance/ippMalloc-do-i-need-it/m-p/922559#M15856 <DIV>Doi need to use the ippMalloc functions instead of 'new'?

The ippMalloc function provides such memory allocation. But it is possible to use just new operator (or CRT malloc function). No problem with functionality or robustness of IPP code for that case. But be aware that in this case you will not able to reach the maximum performance of your code.</DIV> <DIV></DIV> <DIV>Regards,</DIV> <DIV> Vladimir</DIV> Sat, 18 Dec 2004 02:17:40 GMT https://community.intel.com/t5/Intel-Integrated-Performance/ippMalloc-do-i-need-it/m-p/922560#M15857 Vladimir_Dudnik 2004-12-18T02:17:40Z
