ByteSlice: Pushing the Envelop of Main Memory Data Processing with a New Storage Layout

Summary: ByteSlice presents a byte-level columnar layout that optimizes scans and lookups in main memory, leveraging SIMD. It delivers sub-0.5 cycle per value for scans while preserving lookup performance, beating state-of-the-art on TPC-H and real data. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
