[jira] Updated: (LUCENE-1472) DateTools.stringToDate() can cause lock contention under load

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1472?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Mark Lassau updated LUCENE-1472:
--------------------------------

    Description: 
Load testing our application (the JIRA Issue Tracker) has shown that threads spend a lot of time blocked in DateTools.stringToDate().

The stringToDate() method uses a singleton SimpleDateFormat object to parse the dates.
Each call to SimpleDateFormat.parse() is *synchronized* because SimpleDateFormat is not thread safe.
