Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-7268:
-------------------------------------
The javadocs for this arrays.sort method explicitly state timsort. Polygon
edges are always clockwise or counterclockwise so kinda sorted already... So i
think timsort makes sense?
But other use cases like index sorting have a similar situation... If there is
a perf bug here it could be affecting many things
> Remove ArrayUtil.timSort?

> Is there some workload where our timSort is better than the JDK one? Should
> we just remove ours if its slower?
> Not that its a great test, but i switched Polygon2D edge sorting (just the
> one where it says "sort the edges then build a balanced tree from them") from
> Arrays.sort to ArrayUtil.timSort and was surprised when performance was much
> slower for an enormous polygon
