Hi all,
I recently needed to a simple array procedure that I assumed would be
supported (and almost is) but was surprised to find some limitations.
I've got two arrays, A and B, and some array of indices, I, and I want to
perform the operation
A[I] += B
where I and B have the same dimensions.

Yes, that's the main issue, not the extra memory they use

Tight loops in Python are never pretty.
