I'd collapse all the data for a single object into a single column, not sure about storing 100 objects in a single column though.
Have you considered any concurrency issues ? e.g. multiple threads / processes wanting to update different objects in the same group of 100? Dont understand your reference to the OOP in the context of a reading 100 columns from a row.
