[jira] [Commented] (LUCENE-3935) Optimize Kuromoji inner loop - rewrite ConnectionCosts.get() method

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-3935?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13241129#comment-13241129 ] 

Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-3935:
-------------------------------------

I agree, this should also help on RAM? currently this is 1316 short[1316]'s i think?

I feel like there is a TODO in here somewhere about this: especially since
the connectioncosts.dat we write is "1 dimensional", we just write forwardSize
and backwardSize first and force it to a 2D array in RAM. But it could just
as well make a single array of forwardSize*backwardSize...

> I've been profiling Kuromoji, and not very surprisingly, method {{ConnectionCosts.get(int forwardId, int backwardId)}} that looks up costs in the Viterbi is called many many times and contributes to more processing time than I had expected.
> This method is currently backed by a {{short[][]}}.  This data stored here structure is a two dimensional array with both dimensions being fixed with 1316 elements in each dimension.  (The data is {{matrix.def}} in MeCab-IPADIC.)
> We can rewrite this to use a single one-dimensional array instead, and we will at least save one bounds check, a pointer reference, and we should also get much better cache utilization since this structure is likely to be in very local CPU cache.
> I think this will be a nice optimization.  Working on it...
