The `mpi_array.init` Module¶

Initialisation which needs to occur prior to MPI_Init.

Parts of this source borrows from the airspeed velocity (asv) file benchmark.py.

Functions¶

`create_linux_process_time`()	Uses `ctypes` to create a `time.process_time()` on the `'Linux'` platform.
`create_darwin_process_time`()	Uses `ctypes` to create a `time.process_time()` on the `'darwin'` (OSX) platform.
`initialise_process_time_timer`()	Loads (or creates) `time.process_time()` function and caches the function in `mpi_array.init._process_time`.
`get_process_time_timer`()	The best timer we can use is `time.process_time()`, but it is not available in the Python stdlib until Python 3.3.
