Vitali Lovich commented on THRIFT-1854:
---------------------------------------

Is there an alternate suggestion if adding trove as an optional dependency is not an option?

> When dealing with large collections of primitive types, there can be significant memory (i.e. using arrays of objects instead of arrays of primitives) & runtime overhead (autoboxing/unboxing) using the default collections.  Utilizing trove can significantly improve things.  ideally support would be added for sets & maps, but as a first pass lists would be great.
