Do we need a private constructor to prevent instantiation of FastTimeZone?
It seems to contain only static methods. Not sure if that's the intended
design. But noticed it while looking at the cobertura report (which is looking
great).
> TimeZone.getTimeZone() in FastDateParser causes resource contention
> -------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: LANG-1355
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-1355
> Project: Commons Lang
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: lang.time.*
> Affects Versions: 3.6
> Environment: Windows
> Reporter: Keith Boone
> Assignee: Charles Honton
> Original Estimate: 48h
> Remaining Estimate: 48h
>
> Under heavy load we are seeing contention in FastDateParser.parse() on calls
> to TimeZone.getTimeZone(). TimeZone.getTimeZone() is a synchronized static
> in the Oracle JVM.
> Our proposed solution is to add a class TimeZoneCache containing a single
> method getTimeZone() which gets the requested time zone from a ConcurrentMap,
> and if not present, looks it up via TimeZone.getTimeZone() and caches it
> before returning it.
> Then replace calls to TimeZone.getTimeZone() in FastDateParser ( and
> whereever else) to calls to TimeZoneCache.getTimeZone().
> The reason to add a separate class is because it can also be used by other
> applications which heavily parse or format or do other things where TimeZone
> is repeatedly needed.
> Under extreme load we have seen an 50:1 improvement in calls to
> FastDateParser.parse(). This saves about a ms/call in our test environment,
> and reduces contention.
