# Miscellaneous routines

## Buffer objects

`getbuffer` (obj [,offset[, size]]) | Create a buffer object from the given object referencing a slice of length size starting at offset. Default is the entire buffer. A read-write buffer is attempted followed by a read-only buffer.
`newbuffer` (size) | Return a new uninitialized buffer object of size bytes

## Performance tuning

`alterdot` () | Change dot, vdot, and innerproduct to use accelerated BLAS functions.
`restoredot` () | Restore dot, vdot, and innerproduct to the default non-BLAS implementations.
`setbufsize` (size) | Set the size of the buffer used in ufuncs.
`getbufsize` () | Return the size of the buffer used in ufuncs.
