[jira] Commented: (LUCENE-1607) String.intern() faster alternative

["Mark Miller (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1607?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12700593#action_12700593 ] 

Mark Miller commented on LUCENE-1607:
-------------------------------------

What was the field count? Is it still a considerable speedup with hundreds of fields without slowing anything else down ?(I would assume so, but would be nice to know considering a new hashmap is made per add - it is a one time hit though and the number of fields is not likely to exceed hundreds at the extreme)?

Also would be great to get the speedup numbers for Java 4 and 5.

I'll relate this to the 3 or 4 other field intern issues out there in a bit.

> By using our own interned string pool on top of default, String.intern() can be greatly optimized.
> On my setup (java 6) this alternative runs ~15.8x faster for already interned strings, and ~2.2x faster for 'new String(interned)'
> For java 5 and 4 speedup is lower, but still considerable.
