Research direction

Start by reading the linked TiFlash vectorization article and the referenced ClickHouse FunctionUnaryArithmetic.h implementation. Define which arithmetic, comparison, and bit-operation functions are in scope, then measure performance before and after each selected optimization; the issue is done when the agreed functions are vectorized and their improvements are verified.
