For byte[] and to some extend for char[] it is quite important, because those are the backing types for String and related classes, and Java apps often have *many* of them, and also quite small. I would not want to to sacrifize them for vectorization, especially not for the relatively uncommon (I think) case of mixed type access. ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/20677#issuecomment-2483162512
