Speed up reflection method calls -------------------------------- Key: HIVE-1447 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1447 Project: Hadoop Hive Issue Type: Improvement Reporter: Zheng Shao Assignee: Zheng Shao
See http://www.cowtowncoder.com/blog/archives/2010/04/entry_396.html and http://www.jguru.com/faq/view.jsp?EID=246569 There is a huge drop of overhead (more than half) if we do "field.setAccessible(true)" for the field that we want to access. I did a simple experiment and that worked well with method as well. The results are (note that the method just add 1 to an integer): {code} 100000000 regular method calls:26 milliseconds. 100000000 reflective method calls without lookup:4029 milliseconds. 100000000 accessible reflective method calls without lookup:1810 milliseconds. {code} -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
