A Performance Study of Alternative Object Faulting and Pointer Swizzling Strategies
Summary: Evaluates E’s portable software object-faulting and pointer-swizzling design: on-demand copying with transactional write-back and checked, pointer-at-a-time swizzling. Experiments against alternatives including ObjectStore show software swizzling can outperform memory mapping, while substantially affecting recovery costs. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
