SIDDHARTH TEOTIA reassigned ARROW-801:
--------------------------------------
Assignee: SIDDHARTH TEOTIA
> [JAVA] Provide direct access to underlying buffer memory addresses in
> consistent way without generating garbage or large amount indirections
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ARROW-801
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-801
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Java - Vectors
> Reporter: Jacques Nadeau
> Assignee: SIDDHARTH TEOTIA
>
> When working with Arrow vectors recently, we observed a situation where our
> time was dominated by calls to getFieldBuffers() to be able to retrieve
> memory addresses (22s out of 26s total for a piece of code). We should
> provide a direct mechanism to access this data so we can avoid all the extra
> indirection and object creation.
> A proposal:
> getBitAddress();
> getDataAddress();
> getOffsetAddress();
> These interfaces would be made available at the FieldVector interface and
> simply throw UnsupportedOperationException where not supported.
> Unsupported Operations:
> data for list type
> offset for fixed width types
> data and offset for struct type
> data for union type
