> 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.
