Also, unlike the lock-based parallelization approaches, this method scales

15.7Conclusion
Data-oriented design is a departure from traditional code-first thinking. It ad-
dresses head-on the two biggest performance problems in modern hardware:
memory access and parallelization. By thinking about programs as instructions to
transform data and thinking first about how that data should be laid out and
worked on, we can get huge performance boosts over more traditional software
development approaches.
