Abstract
This article presents Forma , a practical, safe, and automatic data reshaping framework that reorganizes arrays to improve data locality. Forma splits large aggregated data-types into smaller ones to improve data locality. Arrays of these large data types are then replaced by multiple arrays of the smaller types. These new arrays form natural data streams that have smaller memory footprints, better locality, and are more suitable for hardware stream prefetching. Forma consists of a field-sensitive alias analyzer, a data type checker, a portable structure reshaping planner, and an array reshaper. An extensive experimental study compares different data reshaping strategies in two dimensions: (1) how the data structure is split into smaller ones ( maximal partition × frequency-based partition × affinity-based partition ); and (2) how partitioned arrays are linked to preserve program semantics ( address arithmetic-based reshaping × pointer-based reshaping ). This study exposes important characteristics of array reshaping. First, a practical data reshaper needs not only an inter-procedural analysis but also a data-type checker to make sure that array reshaping is safe. Second, the performance improvement due to array reshaping can be dramatic: standard benchmarks can run up to 2.1 times faster after array reshaping. Array reshaping may also result in some performance degradation for certain benchmarks. An extensive micro-architecture-level performance study identifies the causes for this degradation. Third, the seemingly naive maximal partition achieves best or close-to-best performance in the benchmarks studied. This article presents an analysis that explains this surprising result. Finally, address-arithmetic-based reshaping always performs better than its pointer-based counterpart.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
