@Oppen Oppen commented Mar 14, 2024

Refactors MemoryCell to store a simple [u64; 4] to use the cache more appropriately.
This structure is now a fixed 32 bytes with 32 bytes alignment, meaning any given cell
in the VM memory will never be split across two different cache lines, and eviction will
be minimized in virtue of being the optimal size for a Felt of 252 bits.

The cost of this change is no longer being able to extract the MemoryCell value as a
simple reference, but requiring a conversion for the "normal" MaybeRelocatable, that
is, it implies extra computation and extra copying to extract values. This behaves well
for Lambdaworks where the data is inline in the array, but quite a hit for the BigUint
implementation, which now allocates and frees memory much more often.
Upgrading is recommended only when using Lambdaworks. The tradeoff is deemed acceptable
since only the Lambdaworks (actually types-rs) implementation is preserved for the
1.x branch.
