| About your suggestion of allocating scrap space inside the C++ routine, am I
wrong to think that when the matrices are large and the function is called
repeatedly within a Gibbs sampler loop, this is not a very efficient approach?
Yes, if you want to use it several times you can pass it around for reuse.
As I mentioned, a reference is just a pointer and hence unrelated to the size
of the object.

| That can't work. You have the types confused.

| Or, as I suggested, just allocate the scrap space inside the C++ routine.
