> Parsing text into a class became much slower under Groovy 3.x
> -------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: GROOVY-9601
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-9601
> Project: Groovy
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: class generator
> Affects Versions: 3.0.4
> Environment: Openjdk 11
> Reporter: Fabian Depry
> Assignee: Daniel Sun
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 4.0.0-alpha-1, 3.0.5
>
>
> Our Java application needs to execute dynamically generated Groovy code and
> we use the GroovyClassLoader to create a class from that generated code.
> When we tried to upgrade to Groovy 3.x we noticed a huge bump in the time it
> takes to create those dynamic classes (it became 10 times slower for some of
> them).
> Here is a very simple example of how we use the class loader:
> {code:java}
> package lab;
> import groovy.lang.GroovyClassLoader;
> public class GroovySpeedLab {
> public static void main(String[] args) {
> StringBuilder buf = new StringBuilder();
> buf.append("package lab\r\n");
> buf.append("\r\n");
> buf.append("import groovy.transform.CompileStatic\r\n");
> buf.append("\r\n");
> buf.append("@CompileStatic\r\n");
> buf.append("class MyClass {\r\n");
> for (int i = 0; i < 1000; i++) {
> buf.append("\r\n");
> buf.append(" public void myMethod").append(i).append("()
> {\r\n");
> buf.append(" println('method ").append(i).append("
> invoked...')\r\n");
> buf.append(" }\r\n");
> }
> buf.append("}\r\n");
> long start = System.currentTimeMillis();
> new GroovyClassLoader().parseClass(buf.toString());
> System.out.println("Done parsing in " + (System.currentTimeMillis() -
> start) + "ms");
> }
> }
> {code}
> While this runs very quickly (because the methods are trivial), it it still
> consistently 50% slower with 3.x (but I am including this example mainly to
> show our use-case, not to focus on its speed difference).
> Our real application has much more complex classes (and many of them) and its
> initialization went from a couple of minutes to 10+ minutes.
> Is there another way to parse a given Groovy class without taking such a big
> performance hit with the new version of Groovy?
> Note that we also use many small Script objects created by calling
> GroovyShell.parse() and we noticed the same performance hit for those (I
> assume it uses the same mechanism under the hood).
