             Summary: GlobbingPathFilter constructor is expensive
                 Key: OAK-5589
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-5589
             Project: Jackrabbit Oak
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: core
    Affects Versions: 1.6.0
            Reporter: Stefan Egli
            Assignee: Stefan Egli


The [GlobbingPathFilter 
constructor|https://github.com/apache/jackrabbit-oak/blob/jackrabbit-oak-1.6.0/oak-core/src/main/java/org/apache/jackrabbit/oak/plugins/observation/filter/GlobbingPathFilter.java#L75]
 is doing an expensive {{ImmutableList.copyOf}} while traversing down a path as 
part of filtering. ImmutableList internally first creates a Builder with 
capacity 4 - thus frequently has to do an {{ObjectArrays.arraysCopyOf}}.

Two things that can be improved here:
* as suggested by [~mduerig] that [private 
constructor|https://github.com/apache/jackrabbit-oak/blob/jackrabbit-oak-1.6.0/oak-core/src/main/java/org/apache/jackrabbit/oak/plugins/observation/filter/GlobbingPathFilter.java#L74]
 - should not copy at all. Only the public constructors should. So the public 
constructors should be rewritten to reflect this.
* {{ImmutableList.copyOf}} cannot be passed an initial capacity unfortunately. 
Perhaps there's an alternative for this though.
