> Question, if you use CoW then presumably your variable blocks are no longer contiguous, wouldn't this really slow down vector operations?
I don't think so. Vector operations require the data to be aligned to whatever the vector size is, no? E.G. 16-byte vector ops require the data to be aligned to 16-byte, etc... At least that's my understanding.
