Zoltan Farkas commented on AVRO-1497: ------------------------------------- Agree about interning, String.intern is slow in jdk 1.6 - 1.7. Using an Interner (from guava) which has a ConcurentHashMap underneath is significantly faster... > Add LogicalType support to Java > ------------------------------- > > Key: AVRO-1497 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1497 > Project: Avro > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: java > Reporter: Ryan Blue > Assignee: Zoltan Farkas > Fix For: 1.7.8 > > Attachments: Logical Types Performance Comparison - Sheet1.csv > > > AVRO-1402 updates the Avro spec to include logical types, which are stored as > existing types but interpreted as others. The next step is to implement > LogicalType (in Java) that provides tools to attach a logical type to a > schema, read a logical type, and validate logical types. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
