Ok, I've finally had a chance to run these. The results for strings are super impressive. The difference was so much I had to widen some of these plots to even see the difference between no altrep and altrep versions. ~Interestingly(?) it looks like dictionaries are also using altrep too (though there doesn't seem to be any performance difference between them).~ I should have refreshed this page before posting, you noted that structs can now be altrep up above (sorry about that!). I'm not seeing a huge performance increase with them though. _Note_ the @HEAD and @7f7f72d branches did not return successfully not because there was a failure, but because the objects didn't pass [the altrep checking that {arrowbench} does](https://github.com/ursacomputing/arrowbench/blob/main/R/bm-array-to-vector.R#L67-L76).
