-------------------------------------
Thanks for bringing this up [~Baohe Zhang], I came across PR 29354 and was
concerned that it would fall by the wayside now that [~samkhan] was no longer
at Verizon Media :) I am not a committer so cannot give binding +1 but will be
happy to help review and do what I can to get this in (y)

> We found that using "org.apache.avro.generic.GenericData" as Avro
> serialization data model in Avro writer can significantly improve Avro write
> performance and slightly improve Avro read performance.
> This optimization was originally put up by [~samkhan] in this PR
> https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/29354.
> We re-evaluated the change "Use GenericData instead of ReflectData when
> writing Avro data" in that PR and verified it can provide performance
> improvement in Avro write/read benchmarks.
> The base branch is today(2/2/21)'s branch-3.1.
> Besides current Avro read/write benchmarks, I also ran some extra benchmarks
> for nested structs and arrays read/write, these benchmarks were put up in
> this PR https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/29352 but haven't been merged.
> Benchmark results are added in the comment.
