CodeCreeps System Engine
Ultra-compact algorithmic benchmarks, lock-free concurrency primitives, and SIMD data structures.
48.2M ops/s sustained throughput with 0 heap allocation.
Architecture
Engineered with strict cacheline alignment (`#[repr(align(64))]`), zero-cost abstractions, memory barrier ordering (`Acquire` / `Release`), and explicit SIMD vectorization primitives targeting x86_64 and ARM NEON hardware architectures.
Key Decisions
Implemented atomic head and tail pointers with explicit memory barriers rather than mutex locks.
Impact: Zero thread contention stalls and sustained throughput of 48 million operations per second.
Utilized AVX-512 / AVX2 intrinsics for high-speed bit scanning.
Impact: Accelerated graph traversal and sparse matrix lookups by 4.8x.
Designed arena allocator providing pre-allocated linear chunk memory.
Impact: Zero syscall overhead during execution cycles.
