Mark Lassau commented on LUCENE-1472:
-------------------------------------
The following methods would potentially suffer contention as well depending on
usage patterns of the particular app:
* stringToTime()
* dateToString()
* timeToString()
> DateTools.stringToDate() can cause lock contention under load

> Key: LUCENE-1472
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1472
> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Search
> Affects Versions: 2.3.2
> Reporter: Mark Lassau
> Priority: Minor
>
> Load testing our application (the JIRA Issue Tracker) has shown that threads
> spend a lot of time blocked in DateTools.stringToDate().
> The stringToDate() method uses a singleton SimpleDateFormat object to parse
> the dates.
> Each call to parse is *synchronized* because SimpleDateFormat is not thread
> safe.
