I'm in favor.
> Improve Java reading performance with a new reader
> --------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: AVRO-2247
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-2247
> Project: Apache Avro
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: java
> Reporter: Martin Jubelgas
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 1.10.0
>
> Attachments: Perf-Comparison.md
>
>
> Complementary to AVRO-2090, I have been working on decoding of Avro objects
> in Java and am suggesting a new implementation of a DatumReader that improves
> read performance for both generic and specific records by approximately 20%
> (and even more in cases of nested objects with defaults, a case I encounter a
> lot in practical use).
> Key concept is to create a detailed execution plan once at DatumReader. This
> execution plan contains all required defaulting/lookup values so they need
> not be looked up during object traversal while reading.
> The reader implementation can be enabled and disabled per GenericData
> instance. The system default is set via the system variable
> "org.apache.avro.fastread" (defaults to "false").
> Attached a performance comparison of the existing implementation with the
> proposed one. Will open a pull request with respective code in a bit (not
> including interoperability with the optimizations of AVRO-2090 yet). Please
> let me know your opinion of whether this is worth pursuing further.
