             Summary: Forbidden-apis: avoid calls to Collections.sort
                 Key: LUCENE-4977
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-4977
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Adrien Grand
            Priority: Minor


Collections.sort works by dumping its content into an array, sorting it with 
Arrays.sort and then getting the elements back into the list. On the contrary, 
CollectionUtil has the ability to sort in-place when the list supports 
random-access, this is more memory-efficient and maybe even faster in some 
cases.

We could use the forbidden-apis tool to prevent our code from calling 
Collections.sort.
