Thomas Mueller resolved JCR-2033.
---------------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
I don't plan to work in this issue for Jackrabbit 2.x.
We should ensure it's solved in Jackrabbit 3 however.
> Node.orderBefore is slow

> Key: JCR-2033
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-2033
> Project: Jackrabbit Content Repository
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: jackrabbit-core
> Reporter: Thomas Mueller
> Assignee: Thomas Mueller
> Priority: Minor
>
> Use case: I have a node with a medium number of child nodes, and want to sort
> the child nodes. To do that, I use Node.orderBefore.
> This is slow (31 seconds to sort 2000 child nodes), O(n^2).
> Workarounds:
> 1) don't use that many child nodes
> 2) instead of using orderBefore, create a new node with the children in the
> right order
> Test case:
> Session session = new TransientRepository().login(new SimpleCredentials("",
> new char[0]));
> Node root = session.getRootNode();
> Node test = root.hasNode("test") ? root.getNode("test") :
> root.addNode("test");
> long start = System.currentTimeMillis();
> int len = 2000;
> for (int i = 0; i < len; i++) {
> test.addNode("n" + i);
> }
> System.out.println("creating: " + (System.currentTimeMillis() - start));
> session.save();
> start = System.currentTimeMillis();
> for (int i = 0; i < len; i++) {
> test.orderBefore("n" + i, null);
> }
> System.out.println("sorted: " + (System.currentTimeMillis() - start));
> session.logout();
> Output:
> creating: 712
> sorted: 31281
> Possible solutions:
> - speed up Node.orderBefore
> - create a 'sorting tool' that uses the 'create new node' trick
> - create a new (Jackrabbit internal) solution to sort quickly
