The latest generation of consoles have (or at least have been slated to have for some time) very significant improvements in IO bandwidth. To the extent that it may make sense to use file formats that map very closely to in-memory formats, or to duplicate data, even at the cost of file size. If you can stream data faster than you could feasibly decompress it, and if having a flat format is faster than a normalised de-duplicated one, a lot of common sense ideas are inverted. |
