Hi Chris, Didn't Doug's changes also remove the constraint:
"The algorithm requires a working space equal to the size of the original array."

Doug has made some updates to the java.util.Arrays sorting code to provide stable sorting. There have also been some changes to the original Parallel Array Sorting ( MIN_ARRAY_SORT_GRAN is public again ). Right now a copy of this work is sitting in the lambda repo. This issue proposed to integrate this work into jdk8. http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~chegar/8014076/ver.00/specdiff/java/util/Arrays.html http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~chegar/8014076/ver.00/webrev/ Thanks, -Chris.
