Hi! Could someone comment on ticket #450 [Numpy-tickets] [NumPy] #450: Make a.min() not copy data It seems odd that calculating the min of an array causes a memory error. The demonstrated data array is a 3D cube of uint8 and about 1GB in size. even creation of an extra (2d) array when reducing the 1st dimension, would only need about 1MB -- that can not really explain the memory error. Thanks, Sebastian
