> Key: AVRO-3527
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-3527
> Project: Apache Avro
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: java
> Reporter: Steven Aerts
> Assignee: Christophe Le Saec
> Priority: Major
> Labels: pull-request-available
> Fix For: 1.12.0, 1.12.1
>
> Attachments: equals_hashcode_after.txt, equals_hashcode_before.txt,
> flame_graph.jpeg
>
> Time Spent: 3h 50m
> Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> When profiling our production system, we found that it was spending almost
> 40% of its overall time in the {{SpecificRecordBase.hashCode()}} and
> {{SpecificRecordBase.equals()}} implementations.
> In some sections of its logic we see that almost all time is spend in those
> function, as can be seen in attached flame graph (blue "pyramids")
> !flame_graph.jpeg|width=385,height=99!
> By generating the {{.equals()}} and {{.hashCode()}} all this overhead
> disappeared and this application became 35% faster overall.
> Also on other AVRO heavy applications we saw noticeable performance gains
> where we hadn't expect them due to this improvement.
> A generated implementation of {{.hashCode()}} becomes 5 to 10 times faster
> than its generic counterpart. For {{.equals()}} it is 10 to 20 times faster.
> Which is also visible in the attached JMH benchmarks.
