I hope you are aware that that when you create an array, say, int
array[200][200], then when you reference array[i][j], there is an
implicit multiplication performed by the compiler to find this address.
There is no performance loss or gain by doing the multiplication
explicitly when you malloc your own array.

The solution given previously, using an array of pointers, is probably
the best speed-up.
