The focus of Drill is to combine polymorphic heterogenous data with 
performance.  Some systems have polymorphism, some have performance.
Essentially none have both.

Actually, a number of basic operations in Drill do get vectorized to use the 
SIMD instructions of the underlying processor.  Enabling that is the rationale 
behind the unusual code-embedding UDF system that Drill has.
