>             Project: Apache Avro
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: java
>            Reporter: Steven Aerts
>            Assignee: Christophe Le Saec
>            Priority: Major
>              Labels: pull-request-available
>             Fix For: 1.12.0
>
>         Attachments: equals_hashcode_after.txt, equals_hashcode_before.txt, flame_graph.jpeg
>
>          Time Spent: 3.5h
>  Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> When profiling our production system, we found that it was spending almost 40% of its overall time in the {{SpecificRecordBase.hashCode()}} and {{SpecificRecordBase.equals()}} implementations.
> In some sections of its logic we see that almost all time is spend in those function, as can be seen in attached flame graph  (blue "pyramids")
> !flame_graph.jpeg|width=385,height=99!
> By generating the {{.equals()}} and {{.hashCode()}} all this overhead disappeared and this application became 35% faster overall. 
> Also on other AVRO heavy applications we saw noticeable performance gains where we hadn't expect them due to this improvement.
> A generated implementation of {{.hashCode()}} becomes 5 to 10 times faster than its generic counterpart. For {{.equals()}} it is 10 to 20 times faster.
> Which is also visible in the attached JMH benchmarks.
