[jira] [Commented] (LUCENE-9047) Directory APIs should be little endian

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-9047?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17237366#comment-17237366 ] 

Dawid Weiss commented on LUCENE-9047:
-------------------------------------

Hmm.... I don't know. I look at this patch and I can't dodge the feeling that somehow it's become more complex and weird than it was before... All those calls to EndiannessReverserUtil kill me. Even the byte-by-byte snippets have become expanded into a multitude of local variables to be assembled again (I prefer the terse version that doesn't use local variables, to be honest).

> We started discussing this on LUCENE-9027. It's a shame that we need to keep reversing the order of bytes all the time because our APIs are big endian while the vast majority of architectures are little endian.
