[jira] [Updated] (FLINK-16296) Improve performance of BaseRowSerializer#serialize() for GenericRow

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-16296?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Jark Wu updated FLINK-16296:
----------------------------
    Description: 
Currently, when serialize a {{GenericRow}} using {{BaseRowSerializer#serialize()}} , there will be 2 memory copy. The first is GenericRow -> BinaryRow, the second is  BinaryRow -> DataOutputView. 

However, in theory, we can serialize GenericRow into DataOutputView directly, because we already get all the column values and types. We can serialize the null bit part for all columns and then the fix-part for all columns and then the variable lenght part. 

For example, when the column is a BinaryString, we can serialize the pos and length, and calcute the new variable part length, and then serialize the next column. If there is a generic type in the row, then it will fallback into previous way. But generic type in SQL is rare. 

This is a general improvements and can be benefit for every operators. 

If this can be done, then {{GenericRow}} is always the best choice for producers, and {{BinaryRow}} is always the best choice for consumers.
