This is a function pointer that points on the best memcpy function available depending of the OS and proc. In the best case, it will use <a class="el" href="a02515.html#NLMISC_1_1CFastMeme0">memcpySSE()</a>, and in worst case, it'll use the libc <a class="el" href="a02515.html#NLMISC_1_1CFastMems0">memcpy()</a> Simply use it this way: CFastMem::memcpy(dst, src, size);
