Michael Doswald commented on PDFBOX-3432:
-----------------------------------------
I thought of this too, but since fontbox does not have many dependencies, I
didn't want to add new libraries just for one or two classes. My current patch
implements a simple version of IntIntMap that only provides the features needed
by fontbox.

> Key: PDFBOX-3432

> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: FontBox
> Affects Versions: 2.0.2
> Environment: Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS
> Reporter: Michael Doswald
> Priority: Trivial
> Labels: optimization, performance
> Attachments: PDFBOX-3432_Optimize_CID_to_GlyphId_mapping_rev1.patch,
> pdfbox-performance-PDFBOX-3432.zip

>
> TTF fonts map code-points (Code IDs) to glyphs. These are mappings from int
> to int. Because the JDK lacks map classes for primitive types, the code (e.g.
> in CmapSubtable) currently uses Map<Integer,Integer> for those mappings. This
> is inefficient in different ways:
> * Autoboxing/unboxing introduces a performance penalty
> * Boxing to Integer objects has a memory overhead
> * The JDK Map implementation has a big memory overhead for such simple objects
> For efficiency (execution time and memory consumption) I would propose to
> introduce a simple IntIntMap implementation which works with primitive
> integers.
