This is for production.
Particles give a nice procedural approach, where I can easily control
spacing, speed and most important: number of words.
If this fails I'll fallback to deformers, but that's not iteration
friendly path :)

Is this for learning purposes, or production? You can technically
achieve that with the regular bend deformer in Maya, and if that’s not
enough, you could also create a joint chain per vertex (or even
approximately) and simply rotate them all along one axis, and if
that’s not enough you could also bend-deform or joint deform a regular
poly cylinder (or even a plane), and wrap deform your text to that.

This should get you there:

Note that this is also calculating an actual rotational value
along with it which isn't needed if you're doing pure
point/vertex deformation.
Why do you need a custom implementation? :)
Thanks!
What I need to do is hundreds of words orbiting around common
center axis (cylindryically).
I want to create animation with particles and instancing and bend
words with displacement shader.
