Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-3654:
-------------------------------------

Sorry, i'm totally against the change, even with safety checks. 

I think this will hurt the reputation of project, and i think it will be a 
nightmare for developers too (Sorry, i dont want to debug avoidable jvm 
crashes).
And I don't want to see Lucene start using unsafe everywhere. This is 
lucene-java, things like bounds checking are part of the language.

> 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.
