Uwe Schindler commented on LUCENE-3654:
---------------------------------------
What do we have to lose, it's like with MMapDirectory, a few tests on startup
and setting a reference to the improved comparator and done? Indeed we need
compile-time checking (import of the Unsafe class), but if there are
incompatible changes we will see on runtime linking and automatically fall back
to the Java-Only comparator.
> Optimize BytesRef comparator to use Unsafe long based comparison (when
> possible)

> Inspire by Google Guava UnsignedBytes lexi comparator, that uses unsafe to do
> long based comparisons over the bytes instead of one by one (which yields
> 2-4x better perf), use similar logic in BytesRef comparator. The code was
> adapted to support offset/length.
