Yonik Seeley commented on LUCENE-2213:
--------------------------------------

bq. The thing is, if we blindly add the extra allocation & return, we'll lose 
up to 1/8th of the usable size of the array?

Yep - depends on what this is being used for.  Some thing you know will never 
go that high, something you don't.
All this generification is super-lightweight for arrays of any kind of size... 
but if it starts getting used very often for very small arrays, the overhead 
will start to matter.

> Spinoff from java-dev thread "Dynamic array reallocation algorithms" started 
> on Jan 12, 2010.
> Here's what I did:
>   * Keep the +3 for small sizes
>   * Added 2nd arg = number of bytes per element.
>   * Round up to 4 or 8 byte boundary (if it's 32 or 64 bit JRE respectively)
>   * Still grow by 1/8th
>   * If 0 is passed in, return 0 back
> I also had to remove some asserts in tests that were checking the actual 
> values returned by this method -- I don't think we should test that (it's an 
> impl. detail).
