Objective

At least partially addresses #6282.

Resources are currently stored as a dedicated Resource archetype (ID 1). This allows for easy code reusability, but unnecessarily adds 72 bytes (on 64-bit systems) to the struct that is only used for that one archetype. It also requires several fields to be pub(crate) which isn't ideal.

This should also remove one sparse-set lookup from fetching, inserting, and removing resources from a World.

Solution

  • Add Resources parallel to Tables and SparseSets and extract the functionality used by Archetype in it.
  • Remove unique_components from Archetype
  • Remove the pub(crate) on Archetype::components.
  • Remove ArchetypeId::RESOURCE
  • Remove Archetypes::resource and Archetypes::resource_mut

Changelog

Added: Resources type to store resources.
Added: Storages::resource
Removed: ArchetypeId::RESOURCE
Removed: Archetypes::resource and Archetypes::resources
Removed: Archetype::unique_components and Archetypes::unique_components_mut

Migration Guide

Resources have been moved to Resources under Storages in World. All code dependent on Archetype::unique_components(_mut) should access it via world.storages().resources() instead.

All APIs accessing the raw data of individual resources (mutable and read-only) have been removed as these APIs allowed for unsound unsafe code. All usages of these APIs should be changed to use World::{get, insert, remove}_resource.

Very happy with the direction here; this is much cleaner.

A couple of small changes needed.

  1. Finish the migration guide.
  2. Add doc strings to Resources.

Optionally:

  1. Refactor the common snippet noted above into a function.
  2. Add doc strings to the methods on Resources.

@james7132 can you fix this up when you get the chance? I think the fixes should be straightforward, and I'd like to unblock #4955.

I think we can do those in follow-up PRs. It's useful, but not essential.

Honestly this is still kinda sketchy around Send/Sync but I am feeling like we ought to just merge this and move on because trying to get bevy to be sound with World: Send + Sync seems (to me) like a losing battle. Since this PR doesnt actually make anything worse we should just merge this and make World: !Send + !Sync hold later.

This is ready: I agree with Boxy's assessment and think this makes reasoning about the internals of resources much nicer. Small perf improvements are a nice bonus.

# Objective
At least partially addresses #6282.

Resources are currently stored as a dedicated Resource archetype (ID 1). This allows for easy code reusability, but unnecessarily adds 72 bytes (on 64-bit systems) to the struct that is only used for that one archetype. It also requires several fields to be `pub(crate)` which isn't ideal.

This should also remove one sparse-set lookup from fetching, inserting, and removing resources from a `World`.

## Solution

- Add `Resources` parallel to `Tables` and `SparseSets` and extract the functionality used by `Archetype` in it.
- Remove `unique_components` from `Archetype`
- Remove the `pub(crate)` on `Archetype::components`.
- Remove `ArchetypeId::RESOURCE`
- Remove `Archetypes::resource` and `Archetypes::resource_mut`

## Changelog
Added: `Resources` type to store resources.

…4927)

# Objective
Archetype is a deceptively large type in memory. It stores metadata about which components are in which storage in multiple locations, which is only used when creating new Archetypes while moving entities.

## Solution
Remove the redundant `Box<[ComponentId]>`s and iterate over the sparse set of component metadata instead. Reduces Archetype's size by 4 usizes (32 bytes on 64-bit systems), as well as the additional allocations for holding these slices.

It'd seem like there's a downside that the origin archetype has it's component metadata iterated over twice when creating a new archetype, but this change also removes the extra `Vec<ArchetypeComponentId>` allocations when creating a new archetype which may amortize out to a net gain here. This change likely negatively impacts creating new archetypes with a large number of components, but that's a cost mitigated by the fact that these archetypal relationships are cached in Edges and is incurred only once for each edge created.

## Additional Context
There are several other in-flight PRs that shrink Archetype:

 - #4800 merges the entities and rows Vecs together (shaves off 24 bytes per archetype) 
 - #4809 removes unique_components and moves it to it's own dedicated storage (shaves off 72 bytes per archetype)

---

## Changelog
Changed: `Archetype::table_components` and `Archetype::sparse_set_components` return iterators instead of slices. `Archetype::new` requires iterators instead of parallel slices/vecs.

## Migration Guide
Do I still need to do this? I really hope people were not relying on the public facing APIs changed here.

# Objective
Make core types in ECS smaller. The column sparse set in Tables is never updated after creation.

## Solution
Create `ImmutableSparseSet` which removes the capacity fields in the backing vec's and the APIs for inserting or removing elements. Drops the size of the sparse set by 3 usizes (24 bytes on 64-bit systems)

## Followup
~~After #4809, Archetype's component SparseSet should be replaced with it.~~ This has been done.

---

## Changelog
Removed: `Table::component_capacity`

## Migration Guide
`Table::component_capacity()` has been removed as Tables do not support adding/removing columns after construction.
