Mark Miller commented on LUCENE-1607: ------------------------------------- What was the field count? Is it still a considerable speedup with hundreds of fields without slowing anything else down ?(I would assume so, but would be nice to know considering a new hashmap is made per add - it is a one time hit though and the number of fields is not likely to exceed hundreds at the extreme)? Also would be great to get the speedup numbers for Java 4 and 5. I'll relate this to the 3 or 4 other field intern issues out there in a bit. > String.intern() faster alternative > ---------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-1607 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1607 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Earwin Burrfoot > Fix For: 2.9 > > Attachments: intern.patch > > > By using our own interned string pool on top of default, String.intern() can > be greatly optimized. > On my setup (java 6) this alternative runs ~15.8x faster for already interned > strings, and ~2.2x faster for 'new String(interned)' > For java 5 and 4 speedup is lower, but still considerable. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: java-dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: java-dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
