Decomposed Bounded Floats for Fast Compression and Queries
Summary: Buff introduces decomposed columnar encoding for bounded, low-precision floats, delivering strong compression for data-intensive workloads. Fast ingestion and SIMD-accelerated in-situ adaptive queries exploit the decomposed representation to enable high-speed analytics on such data. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
