Description

Hey, given a large 1-dimensional numpy array, e.g.

import numpy as np
dim = 1000000
A = np.random.randn(dim)

what is the fastest way to convert it into a Rust Vector of e.g. $Vec$.
Rust is allowed to take ownership of the vector.

Research direction

Start by checking the repository's NumPy array conversion entry points for ownership-taking APIs, using the 1,000,000-element f64 example as a benchmark. Done means identifying the fastest supported conversion and documenting whether it transfers ownership without copying.
