Why is it a separate array instead of the one inside of the local vector?
Are you asking: "Why is this not a view into the local vector?" I'm guessing because we never thought about it that way :) I ask the question mostly because we are reevaluating a large set of performance-related modifications to the pyclaw code base, and I didn't see a clear justification for the use of reset/place instead of localToGloba/reset... I'll have to think a little more about considering qbc a view of the local array instead of a copy, and probably take a closer look into how it's being used in pyclaw to explain that. -A
