# Objective Remove `ArchetypeComponentId` and `archetype_component_access`. Following #16885, they are no longer used by the engine, so we can stop spending time calculating them or space storing them. ## Solution Remove `ArchetypeComponentId` and everything that touches it. The `System::update_archetype_component_access` method no longer needs to update `archetype_component_access`. We do still need to update query caches, but we no longer need to do so *before* running the system. We'd have to touch every caller anyway if we gave the method a better name, so just remove `System::update_archetype_component_access` and `SystemParam::new_archetype` entirely, and update the query cache in `Query::get_param`. The `Single` and `Populated` params also need their query caches updated in `SystemParam::validate_param`, so change `validate_param` to take `&mut Self::State` instead of `&Self::State`. |
