Hi All,

Since the cpu access the memory in word size, for a large buffer, (say
size N bytes where N > wordsize) isn't it sufficient for buffer to be
properly aligned if its address % WORD_SIZE == 0? rather than address %
N == 0 check?? Since cpu, anyways will not access more than word size at a time so any address which is divisible by wordsize is by default properly aligned from the cpu access point of view?
