What do you mean here? That a ByteBuffer be viewable as an array of (value) objects? Again, I'm really not sure what it is that you want to do that you can't already. > 2. Separate arrays per field is less cache friendly than true value types That might be the case, but it's very dependent on the actual access patterns in a given application.
