Iterating slices instead of indexes seems to improve performance of non-simd arithmetic operations. This adds a new method raw_values_slice to PrimitiveArray (so named to pun off of the raw_values function which returns a pointer). A few of the functions in PrimitiveArray rely on the caller for safety guarantees (bounds-checks for value_slice, value), so should probably be unsafe? But they are used widely, so I thought it simpler to start by adding a safer alternative... ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
