Jan 20, 2020 at 1:29 comment added Lie Ryan In some cases, things can actually be faster when you process your data in columns. In particular, this is the case when you're running in a SIMD architecture, such as GPGPU as column oriented processing means the GPU does not need to decode the same instructions for each row or with interpreted/VM-based language that doesn't use JIT recompilation, where the languages' regular looping construct can be much slower than calling functions working on a list that uses compiled code loops. Code in column oriented processing can also sometimes be much more readable when there's little branching.
