I added a test which found a bug and fixed the bug. The PR also contains new tests for `Reader` and `InputStreamReader`. They cover on-heap and off-heap cases.

Yes, let's keep bring it back to just eliminating the intermediate array when the buffer has a backing array.

Objects such as > InputStreamReader are already a problem due to the underlying stream decoder. Right. So you propose to revert the off-heap path to the current master? That would be fine with me. The original bug and my motivation was only about the backing array case, the rest crept in. That would certainly keep the risk and impact lower. - PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/1915

I think the implementation changes here look good. I don't know however whether there is enough coverage in the tests. These should verify that the `Reader`, `CharArrayReader`, and `InputStreamReader` implementations of `read(CharBuffer)` are accurate. If there is already sufficient coverage in the tests in `test/jdk/java/io` then that is good enough and nothing need be added. - PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/1915

Perhaps a static final `WORK_BUFFER_SIZE` could be added with value 8192 and `maxSkipBufferSize` and `TRANSFER_BUFFER_SIZE` replaced with that? Then `skipBuffer` could be renamed to `workBuffer` and used in both `read(CharBuffer)` and `skip(long)`. That shouldn't be a problem as both uses are in synchronized blocks.

That would be possible. It would help in cases where a large Reader is read into one or several relatively small off-heap CharBuffers, requiring multiple #read calls. This can only be done when the caller is able to work with only a partial input. I don't know how common this case is. We could re-purpose #skipBuffer, it has the same maximum size (8192) but determined by a different constant (#maxSkipBufferSize instead of #TRANSFER_BUFFER_SIZE).

To be honest backing out of the StreamDecoder changes looks like a good comprise to me to reduce the risk while still improving throughput and reducing allocation rate, especially in the on-heap path. I gave it some more thought and propose to back out of the StreamDecoder changes. While that leaves some optimization potential unused it keeps the patch smaller, the risk lower and avoids any throughput regressions. Looking a bit further I wonder if CharArrayReader and StringReader should implement #read(CharBuffer) as well and call CharBuffer#put directly. And maybe even #transferTo(Writer). I did have a look at this [1] for coders LATIN1(0) and UTF16(1) as well as 128 and 1024 char sized readers for both on- and off-heap buffers. CharArrayReader#read(CharBuffer) on-heap Higher throughput than master but slightly lower throughput than the current PR. I donĀ“ t know why that is, maybe the additional checks in CharBuffer show up here. off-heap Higher throughput than master or the PR, all intermediate allocation is gone. StringReader#read(CharBuffer) on-heap Higher throughput than master but slightly lower throughput than the current PR. I donĀ“ t know why that is, maybe the additional checks in CharBuffer show up here. The situation is similar to CharArrayReader. off-heap Lower throughput but all intermediate allocation is gone. What shows up here is the lack of an optimized #put(String) method for off-heap CharBuffers like was done in JDK-8011135 for on-heap buffers. Based on this is propose to add CharArrayReader#read(CharBuffer), assuming it is still in the scope of the bug. I wouldn't add StringReader#read(CharBuffer) due to the throughput regression. I think #transferTo(Writer) would be out of the scope of the bug. Is that ok?

For small buffers (128 bytes) throughput is a bit lower than master but increases with buffer size. For 1 KB buffers it is about even, for 1 MB buffers it is better. Throughput is a lot better than with the StreamDecoder changes without intermediate allocation, there we lose about one half to two thirds of throughput. - Allocation rate stays high (1.5 - 3 GB/s) and only drops with large buffer sizes (1 MB) to 20 - 30 MB/s.

How does the performance of `InputStreamReader.read(CharBuffer)` compare for the case where only the change to `Reader` is made versus if all your proposed changes are applied? I can look into this, this will take a moment. I guess it would also make sense to have a comparison with a version that does intermediate heap allocation for off-heap buffers in InputStreamReader#read(CharBuffer). Some kind of specific test should likely be included. Sure. The existing tests in this area seem to be #main-based. Would you prefer #main based tests or TestNG tests? Note that the more recent copyright year is now 2021. Indeed it is, fixed. Cheers Philippe

A couple of implementation notes: Reader#read(CharBuffer) on-heap case I introduced a dedicated path for the on-heap case and directly read into the backing array. This completely avoids the intermediate allocation and copy. Compared to the initial proposal the buffer position is updated. This has to be done because we bypass the buffer and directly read into the array. This also handles the case that #read returns -1. I am using a c-style array declaration because the rest of the class uses it. off-heap case I limit the intermadiate allocation to TRANSFER_BUFFER_SIZE. In order to reduce the total intermediate allocation we now call #read multiple times until the buffer is full or EOF is reached. This changes the behavior slightly as now possibly more data is read. However this should contribute to reduce the overall intermediate allocations. A lock is acquired to keep the the read atomic. This is consistent with #skip which also holds a lock over multiple #read calls. This is inconsistent with #transferTo which does not acquire a lock over multiple #read calls. The implementation took inspiration from java.io.InputStream#readNBytes(int). InputStreamReader#read(CharBuffer) Since StreamDecoder is a Reader as well we can simply delegate. StreamDecoder#read(CharBuffer) Interestingly this was not implemented even though StreamDecoder internally works on NIO buffers. on-heap case We see a performance improvement and the elimination of all intermediate allocation. StreamDecoder#read(char[], int, int) and InputStreamReader#read(char[], int, int) may get a small improvement as we no longer #slice the buffer. off-heap case We see the elimination of all intermediate allocation but a performance penalty because we hit the slow path in #decodeLoop. There is a trade-off here, we could improve the performance to previous levels by introducing intermediate allocation again. I don't know how much the users of off-heap buffers care about introducing intermediate allocation vs maximum throughput. I was struggling to come up with microbenchmarks because the built in InputStream and Reader implementations are finite but JMH calls the benchmark methods repeatably. I ended up implementing custom infinite InputStream and Reader implementations.

I wrote a microbenchmark for this but only found minuscule improvements due to regex dominating the runtime. There seem to be no direct Reader tests in the tier1 suite, the initial code was wrong because I forgot to update the buffer code position but I only found out because some Scanner tests failed. - PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/1915
