Uwe Schindler commented on LUCENE-9432:
---------------------------------------
Hi,
the problematic part with linked list is two-kind:
- there is an index-based access to the list. This should be removed and
changed to getLast() or getFirst(), because index-based accesses in LinkedLists
always have a linear scan. If this is not a big slowdown here, it looks like
the list is small and does not grow much. In that case I tend to initialize the
ArrayList with a larger size
- LinkedList has a large object allocation and maintenance overhead (one small
object for every entry), while arrays or ArrayLists are a block, which is also
cache-friendly.
So, two suggestions:
- If LinkedList, then remove index-based access and replace by getLast() or
getFirst() (if possible). If that's not possible its the completely wrong type
of list - sorry. LinkedList also implements Deque, so lets use that interface
as datatype in code! This also prevents us from accidentally using the
index-based access: get(int)
- If we use Deque, we can alternatively use ArrayDeque instead of LinkedList
(it's just a replacement). Here we may think of a good initial size.
