[jira] [Created] (IGNITE-4085) Binary objets: Compare fields of well-known types without deserialization.

---------------------------------------

             Summary: Binary objets: Compare fields of well-known types without deserialization.
                 Key: IGNITE-4085
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IGNITE-4085
             Project: Ignite
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: binary
    Affects Versions: 1.7
            Reporter: Vladimir Ozerov
             Fix For: 1.8


It is not efficient to use {{BinaryField.value}} directly when comparing binary objects because it leads to "materialization" of the field. 

Instead, when well-known type is met, we should simply find field start in both objects and perform usual byte-by-byte comparison.

E.g., for string it will be:
1) Find position
2) Compare lengths (readInt)
3) Compare contents byte-by-byte.

The same goes for other types:
1) Primitive arrays
2) UUID
3) Data/TimeStamp.

Please ensure that byte-by-byte comparison is performed efficiently, e.g. that we compare bigger chunks (e.g. 8 bytes at once).
