This article presents a practical benchmark of a particle simulation using both the AoS (Array of Structures) and SoA (Structure of Arrays) data layouts. How much performance can we gain by merely switching up the way our data is stored? AoS vs SoA in practice: particle simulation by Vittorio Romeo From the article: The benchmark simulates a large number of 2D particles t…

This article shows how a very simple automatic batching strategy can be applied on top of SFML without affecting the library API, resulting in free performance for the end user! free performance: autobatching in my SFML fork by Vittorio Romeo From the article: In one of my previous articles, I discussed the design and implementation of the batching system in my fork of SF…
