Alan Gates commented on PIG-793: -------------------------------- Sri is looking into the array vs arraylist changes as well. > Improving memory efficiency of Tuple implementation > --------------------------------------------------- > > Key: PIG-793 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-793 > Project: Pig > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Olga Natkovich > Assignee: Alan Gates > > Currently, our tuple is a real pig and uses a lot of extra memory. > There are several places where we can improve memory efficiency: > (1) Laying out memory for the fields rather than using java objects since > since each object for a numeric field takes 16 bytes > (2) For the cases where we know the schema using Java arrays rather than > ArrayList. > There might be more. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
