I get your point Igor but then again, we're all somewhat self taught which means that as a developer if you don't understand something you hack around until you get it. It's not like I'm going to break anything in the released products, right? And I think I can judge the risk of wrecking my own machine. I think that helping each other out on this list is more important than scowling at the noobs and yelling "DON'T TOUCH". Sorry if that comes across harsh but I'm honestly a little upset.

sure sure.. but guys... i really doubt that i would want to see people poking with NB who don't even have a basic understanding of malloc(ed) memory management and working with memory buffers & pointers. For such sort of people, best what i can offer is "go back when you will learn basics first".
Of course, it would be cool if NB could work even for "dummies", but i am thinking , as any technology, before you start using it without shooting yourself into foot, you should do some homework first.

Just copy paste the thing you posted in the NBBasicExamples and we're done. A couple of examples which show common problems will help certainly help people to understand.
Plus we should convert the examples into tests so they are always run!

This is clearly something to add to the documentation of NativeBoost. Igor can you do it?
I already have a description of memory management API for NB in docs. And telling how manage external memory is... ahem.. not really fits into docs :) Maybe a tutor or something.
think not technical but user! Id o not give a shit if what helps me is called a doc or a tutorial. I care that it helps me fixing my problem. And what I see is that the example of Max is a nice example of a recurring problem people face.
