MATLAB Objects are about to get a lot faster: Developer input wanted

Hi everyone
It is my pleasure to be able to report on a project that several teams at MathWorks have been working on for some time now. A new object management system that promises to make object oriented code in MATLAB a lot faster.
The new system is available as a limited beta in the pre-release of MATLAB 2026b. It is not turned on by default. If you are developing OOP code, we'd love you to try it out. Most of the time, no code changes will be necessary but there are a small number of well-defined case where you will need to update your code.
The team are currently looking for MATLAB developers to work with who would like to try this out.
More details, including how to join the beta, are available in the following blog post https://blogs.mathworks.com/matlab/2026/07/14/objects-are-about-to-get-much-faster-in-matlab/
Best wishes,
Mike

@Mike Croucher - this is super exciting! I just read the description and benchmark results in your blog post, and it all sounds fantastic! I can't wait to try it out.
Congratulations to everyone involved in this project!
