The new approach decomposes multi-expression mutate calls, analyzes query scope (colData, rowData, assay, or mixed), and routes operations to specialized handlers or the plyxp backend. Benchmarks show up to 26x speedup for mutate operations (median 23.66x), while filter and select see modest gains around 1.1-1.2x. The fallback tibble round-trip path is preserved for complex edge cases. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
