Which begs the question: if the speed is that much better, and the memory footprint is the same, why not submit to Sun under the JCP?
They already have a BitSet, and I didn't just want a clone of BitSet. A big part of OpenBitSet is that it's for library developers, not for casual users. That's why it exposes it's guts (the long[], etc)... to prevent anyone from having to write yet another implementation because the one they were given wasn't extensible and didn't meet their needs. If I were to submit a JCP, I guess it would be to speed up some parts of their current implementation but maintain it's interface. But since I have OpenBitSet, I don't need a faster BitSet anymore :-) -Yonik
