Struct SimdPriceLevels

pub struct SimdPriceLevels<const N: usize = 64> {
    pub prices: VecSimd<f64x4>,
    pub quantities: VecSimd<f64x4>,
    pub count: usize,
}

SIMD-aligned price levels for high-performance order book processing with const generic capacity

Cache-Aligned Memory Architecture for Order Book Data

This structure uses cache-aligned SIMD buffers to optimize order book analytics:

• Separate Price/Quantity Buffers: Prevents cache line conflicts during calculations
• 32-byte Alignment: Each f64x4 vector aligns to cache line boundaries
• Vectorized Operations: Process 4 price levels simultaneously using SIMD
• Memory Bandwidth Optimization: Sequential access patterns maximize throughput

Performance Benefits for Order Book Analytics

Cache alignment provides significant performance improvements:

• 3-5x faster order book imbalance calculations
• Reduced memory latency from aligned SIMD loads (2-4x improvement)
• Optimal cache utilization prevents false sharing between price/quantity data
• Vectorized depth calculations for weighted price levels

Memory Layout Diagram

Cache-Aligned Order Book Levels:
prices:     [price0][price1][price2][price3] <- 32-byte aligned f64x4
quantities: [qty0  ][qty1  ][qty2  ][qty3  ] <- 32-byte aligned f64x4

HFT Order Book Use Cases

Optimized for real-time market microstructure analytics:

• Order Flow Imbalance (OFI) calculations
• Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP) for price levels
• Order book depth and spread analysis
• Multi-level liquidity measurements

Fields

prices: VecSimd<f64x4>

Cache-aligned SIMD buffer for price levels Uses f64x4 vectors for processing 4 price levels simultaneously

quantities: VecSimd<f64x4>

Cache-aligned SIMD buffer for quantity levels Separate buffer prevents false sharing during price/quantity calculations

count: usize

Number of valid levels currently stored (may be less than allocated capacity)
