Hello!
in ov.h inside interpreter, why is fast_elem_insert implemented as a virtual method - by my knowledge no class inherits octave_value. This also creates a virtual table for octave_value and makes octave_value twice the size (instead of the size of one pointer, it is the size of two pointers).
Ps. this is my first time writing to a technical mailing list, so please forgive any wrongdoing.
