[jira] [Updated] (THRIFT-5709) Drastically improve `to_num()` performace

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-5709?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Lukas Barth updated THRIFT-5709:
--------------------------------
    Description: 
Currently, the `to_string()` overloads in `TToString.h` call the `std::locale` constructor for *every* single call. Creating locales is surprisingly expensive. We have an application where we - especially during tests - write large amounts of Thrift dumps to disk, and is this application we currently spend around 17% of total CPU time in std::locale's constructor (building with MSVC, in a Release build - other compilers might optimize this away?). With the proposed change (see GitHub), it's basically down to zero.

Since we always create the exact same locale anyways, using a `const static` one does not hurt.
