Thiago H. de Paula Figueiredo commented on TAP5-2332:
-----------------------------------------------------
These performance comparisons, sometimes, have some code which is quite far
from the tested specific framework. And many times they test meaningless stuff.
For example, take a look at the "Tapestry JSON benchmark" at
https://github.com/TechEmpower/FrameworkBenchmarks/blob/master/tapestry/hello/src/main/java/hello/pages/HelloJSON.java.
It's not testing the performance of the Tapestry JSON classes *at all*.
Actually, it maps a Map<String, String> to JSON using Jackson Mapper then
returns it as a StreamResponse. Same for the "Database Mapping Test", it's
basically using Hibernate, Jackson Mapper and MySQL and calling it a Tapestry
framework:

> Get rid of String.format usage
> ------------------------------
>
> Key: TAP5-2332
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAP5-2332
> Project: Tapestry 5
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Michael Mikhulya
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: performance
> Attachments: 0001-TAP5-2332-get-rid-of-String.format-usage.patch
>
>
> During profiling I found that String.format provides much load on CPU.
> In many cases in Tapestry String.format can be easily replaced with simple
> String concatenation.
> Simple JMH (http://openjdk.java.net/projects/code-tools/jmh/) test
> {code:java}
> public class FormatVsConcat {
> private static final String format = "This is a test string with %s";
> private static final String concat1 = "This is a test string with ";
> private static final String concat2 = "test word";
> @GenerateMicroBenchmark
> public String format() {
> return String.format(format, concat2);
> }
> @GenerateMicroBenchmark
> public String concat() {
> return concat1 + concat2;
> }
> }
> {code}
> shows, that concatenation is 366(!) times faster.
> I removed only hot places in tapestry and get following results with apache
> benchmark:
> *Not patched* tapestry version:
> Requests per second: *21.38 /sec* (mean)
> Time per request: *46.764 [ms]* (mean)
> *Patched* tapestry version:
> Requests per second: *27.77 /sec* (mean)
> Time per request: *36.013 [ms]* (mean)
> So we gained 10ms per request or 20% of rendering time.
> If you don't mind I would like to get rid of String.format in all places of
> Tapestry and provide patch. I fixed only hot places which appeared during
> ab-profiling of one concrete page. So it is very likely that not all hot
> places were found and fixed.
