# Also, the function performance depends very much, and not
# monotonically, on the array size (see getOptimalDFTSize() ). In the
# current implementation DCT of a vector of size N is calculated
# via DFT of a vector of size N/2 . Thus, the optimal DCT
# size N1 >= N can be calculated as:" - OpenCV manual 3.0
