[SCIP] buffer and block memory

[James Cussens]

I would like more detail on when it is appropriate to use buffer versus
block memory in SCIP.

I have a function  which looks like this:

/*STARTS*/
int* counts;
...
SCIP_CALL( SCIPallocClearBlockMemoryArray(scip, &counts, n) );

foo(counts, n, ...);
bar(counts, n,...);

 SCIPfreeBlockMemoryArray(scip, &counts, n);
...
/*ENDS*/

So counts is allocated and freed in the same function, but it used in other
functions. So is it OK (and better) to have this as buffer memory?

James
