> contrib/collation's ICUCollationKeyFilter, which uses ICU4J collation, is 
> faster than CollationKeyFilter, the JVM-provided java.text.Collator 
> implementation in the same package.  The javadocs of these classes should be 
> modified to add a note to this effect.
> My curiosity was piqued by [Robert Muir's 
> comment|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1581?focusedCommentId=12720300#action_12720300]
>  on LUCENE-1581, in which he states that ICUCollationKeyFilter is up to 30x 
> faster than CollationKeyFilter.
> I timed the operation of these two classes, with Sun JVM versions 
> 1.4.2/32-bit, 1.5.0/32- and 64-bit, and 1.6.0/64-bit, using 90k word lists of 
> 4 languages (taken from the corresponding Debian wordlist packages and 
> truncated to the first 90k words after a fixed random shuffling), using 
> Collators at the default strength, on a Windows Vista 64-bit machine.  I used 
> an analysis pipeline consisting of WhitespaceTokenizer chained to the 
> collation key filter, so to isolate the time taken by the collation key 
> filters, I also timed WhitespaceTokenizer operating alone for each 
> combination, and then subtracted it from both of the collation key analysis 
> chains' times.  The rightmost column represents the performance advantage of 
> the ICU4J implemtation (ICU) over the java.text.Collator implementation 
> (JVM), after discounting the WhitespaceTokenizer time (WST): (ICU-WST) / 
> (JVM-WST). The best times out of 5 runs for each combination, in 
> milliseconds, are as follows:
> ||Sun JVM||Language||java.text||ICU4J||WhitespaceTokenizer||ICU4J
