Summary
Removes implicit rebuilds from
ListViewArraytakeandfiltercompute kernels, adds density-introspection methods to support deciding when to rebuild explicitly at materialization boundaries, and defers rebuilding until array export.Motivation. The previous code rebuilt the elements buffer eagerly on every
takeorfilterwhose row-fraction dropped belowREBUILD_DENSITY_THRESHOLD. In an execution tree liketake → take → ..., an eager mid-pipeline rebuild costs an allocation and a full copy of referenced ranges that the next operator may immediately sparsify away.The row-fraction heuristic was also inaccurate. It doesn't account for per-row size variance, unreferenced elements, and duplicate references.
Changes:
TakeReduce::takeandTakeExecute::takefilter_listviewcompute_referenced_elements_mask,compute_density, andestimate_densityListViewArray::should_rebuild(exact: bool): Currently unused but intended to gate an explicit compaction boundary in follow-up.API Changes
take/filterover a sparse or low-densityListViewArrayno longer allocates a compacted elements buffer. Downstream consumers must callrebuildandshould_rebuildexplicitly themselves.Testing
