EVERY BYTE MATTERS
Summary from the TLDR Dev newsletter
Software performance is deeply affected by how data interacts with hardware components like memory tiers and cache lines, going beyond traditional algorithmic complexity. By using a "Struct of Arrays" instead of an "Array of Structs" to tightly pack data, devs can optimize sequential processing and achieve up to thirty times performance improvement by minimizing the size of data structures.
