I warned you about code size. First of all this is how Py++ generates the
code in this case. Second if you will use indexing suite V2, than the amount
of code will drop.

or is this because of some

I didn't tested the code for efficiency, but it doesn't copy the array, just
provides access to the items. So I don't expect problems with it.


If the latter, I would hope that this

Don't know never used it.
