commit 73d8aa53d8a745736709afb84337b5ea26fbefcf Author: Kristian Rickert <[email protected]> AuthorDate: Fri Jul 17 07:58:38 2026 -0400 OPENNLP-1894: Chain lattice nodes intrusively instead of allocating per-position lists The Viterbi lattice held one ArrayList per text position plus one fresh candidate list per position, pure allocation churn on long stretches. Nodes ending at a position now chain through their own link field behind a single head reference per position, and candidate gathering fills one scratch list reused across positions, so building the lattice allocates nothing besides the nodes themselves. IPADIC throughput on the 400k-character harness rises from 5.6M to 6.5M characters per second with identical output. --- .../tools/tokenize/lattice/LatticeTokenizer.java | 43 ++++++++++++---------- 1 file changed, 23 insertions(+), 20 deletions(-) diff --git a/opennlp-core/opennlp-runtime/src/main/java/opennlp/tools/tokenize/lattice/LatticeTokenizer.java b/opennlp-core/opennlp-runtime/src/main/java/opennlp/tools/tokenize/lattice/LatticeTokenizer.java index f7a479bf8..98f75d1b6 100644 --- a/opennlp-core/opennlp-runtime/src/main/java/opennlp/tools/tokenize/lattice/LatticeTokenizer.java +++ b/opennlp-core/opennlp-runtime/src/main/java/opennlp/tools/tokenize/lattice/LatticeTokenizer.java @@ -67,7 +67,11 @@ public class LatticeTokenizer implements Tokenizer { this.dictionary = dictionary; } - /** One lattice node: a candidate morpheme with its best path cost so far. */ + /** + * One lattice node: a candidate morpheme with its best path cost so far.
