If I dump a map to logs I don't care about its order, I only want it to be as fast as possible. Logging already introduces a serious performance hit, and sorting would make logging even more expensive performance wise.
As was mentioned previously if a map is small it's already sorted. So it would be a waste of time although insignificant. But if it's huge it would spend both cpu and memory to vuild sorted structure, and later would spend more cpu on its garbage collection. I don't like the idea of losing production performance only for development convenience.
