It doesn't make a difference if all you use arrays for is to keep a list of items and to iterate over those items.

But if you do anything more advanced with arrays, then you will start to notice the difference.

Circular buffers using modulo on indexes, and accessing 2D and 3D image and volume data are things I end up doing a lot.
