What's the fastest QVector operation

[wysota]

Option 2 is faster than option 1.

You should probably also benchmark using an explicit memcpy from the source array to the target array.

Provided that the data type stored can be copied using memcpy.

Yeah, for my particular situation that inspired me to do this question, I'ld say memcpy is not allowed (the vector is a vector of double, and the array is an array of short). But in any case, how could I do a memcpy from an array to a QVector if their types were compatible? memcpy(&myVector,myArray,sizeof(myArray)) doesn't seem that would work.

You can safely copy doubles from one vector to another using memcpy. You cannot copy classes that have non-trivial constructors. memcpy() accepts addresses where it should copy to/from.

memcpy(myVector.data(), myArray, length_of_array);

memcpy(myVector.data(), myArray, length_of_array);
