type_ids
is ordered in the same way as types
, i.e. using impl Ord for TypeInfo
which compares alignment, whereas index
is ordered by TypeId
to perform look-ups by TypeId
.
IIRC, the type_ids
field itself is only necessary to enable passing &[TypeId]
(in contrast to &[TypeInfo]
) in component order (meaning as stored in the archetype, meaning as sorted by TypeInfo
).

It doesn't. All component arrays are densely packed.

Thank you for your time!

(Also note that generally the cost of creating an Archetype
should not be too critical as well, since if you have a workload that continuously creates new archetypes, an archetype-based ECS like hecs
is probably not a good fit in the first place.)

Okay thank you very much!
If I may follow with an additional question: I have not looked at the code in depth, but it is not obvious to me why the data field stores every Data
struct with an alignment of max_align
(meaning the biggest alignment of all of the components present in the archetype). I probably do not understand correctly the Data
struct, but it seems to me like since every component is stored in a separate array, then we could reduce space usage by using the alignment of every respective component.
