jerolba opened a new pull request, #1035: URL: https://github.com/apache/parquet-mr/pull/1035
The [original Jira ticket ](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PARQUET-2202) references to a concrete bad usage of the `Preconditions.checkArgument` method, where a String is calculated before validating the check, creating an overhead when in theory 100% of the cases the composed String will not be used. The proposed solution inlines the call to `Preconditions.checkArgument`, but the correct approach is to call the `checkArgument` method with a String to format if the argument check is not valid. A similar issue ocurrs in the [constructor](https://github.com/apache/parquet-mr/blob/62b774cd0f0c60cfbe540bbfa60bee15929af5d4/parquet-common/src/main/java/org/apache/parquet/bytes/CapacityByteArrayOutputStream.java#L153) of the `CapacityByteArrayOutputStream` class, where the error message is always created using the `String.format`, instead of passing the template String and its params to the `checkArgument` method. This performance issue is also visible in a profiling. The MR fixes both cases, and reviews the usage of `Preconditions` class, to ensure that error messages are not calculated before checking the boolean expression. I've also reviewed `Preconditions` methods to improve the performance. When you call to a method with a varargs argument, Java internally allocates an array containing all values. To avoid this allocation when the number of params is very low, is recomended to overload the method with versions of the method with different number of arguments. This approach is heavily used in logging frameworks, or in [Guava Preconditions implementation](https://github.com/google/guava/blob/4312d949967f3fb245636f66437a00dd8c346d38/guava/src/com/google/common/base/Preconditions.java#L118) Because nearly 100% of cases are going to check the condition as valid, the Array associated with varargs call to `Preconditions.strings` method will never be created. Because all changes are related with `Preconditions.checkargument`, I've created a single PR. I can split it in multiple PRs if needed. Each commit of the PR makes a type of change, but I can squash into a single commit if needed.
