To increase speed on manipulating big arrays in Java with minimal
bounds checking, would it be possible to have some operators that only
do bounds checking at the boundaries of the array?


A good runtime will pull bounds checking out of inner loops.

This sort of low level optimisation is not something to be concerned about.
