Chunk

Remarks

Sixteen kilobytes by default, which is what fits comfortably in L1 on every target after the entity column is accounted for, and what Arch and DOTS both converged on. A system that reads two of an archetype's eight components touches only those two columns, so the bytes the cache pulls in are bytes the loop uses — which is the entire reason this layout exists.

The whole chunk is one byte[]: the entity column first, then one column per non-tag component, each aligned. Tags occupy no column, only a bit in the archetype's mask.

Fields and properties (5)

• public ReadOnlySpan<Entity> Entities

  The entities in the chunk, in row order.

Methods (3)
