Still trying to find a maven repo for dk.brics.automaton. > PERFORMANCE: optimize common case in matches (PORegex) > ------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: PIG-965 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-965 > Project: Pig > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: impl > Reporter: Thejas M Nair > Assignee: Ankit Modi > Attachments: poregex.patch, poregex2.patch, poregex2.patch > > > Some frequently seen use cases of 'matches' comparison operator have follow > properties - > 1. The rhs is a constant string . eg "c1 matches 'abc%' " > 2. Regexes such that look for matching prefix , suffix etc are very common. > eg - "abc%', "%abc", '%abc%' > To optimize for these common cases , PORegex.java can be changed to - > 1. Compile the pattern (rhs of matches) re-use it if the pattern string has > not changed. > 2. Use string comparisons for simple common regexes (in 2 above). > The implementation of Hive like clause uses similar optimizations. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
