Bryan Duxbury commented on THRIFT-765:
--------------------------------------

I just had a look at this patch and it seems really promising. The performance 
improvement is great (cuts about 30% from encoding and 60% from decoding) so 
I'm encouraged. 

I'm thinking that maybe we should give the Random instance in the test a 
consistent seed so that the test is deterministic. Do you think we should try 
some invalid strings as well? It should just lead to encoding exceptions, right?

> One of the most consistent time-consuming spots of Thrift serialization and 
> deserialization is string encoding. For some inscrutable reason, 
> String.getBytes("UTF-8") is slow. 
> However, it's recently been brought to my attention that DataOutputStream's 
> writeUTF method has a faster implementation of UTF-8 encoding and decoding. 
> We should use this style of encoding.
