Liya Fan created ARROW-6732: ------------------------------- Summary: [Java] Implement quick sort in a non-recursive way to avoid stack overflow Key: ARROW-6732 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-6732 Project: Apache Arrow Issue Type: Improvement Components: Java Reporter: Liya Fan Assignee: Liya Fan
The current quick sort algorithm in implemented by a recursive algorithm. The problem is that for the worst case, the number of recursive layers is equal to the length of the vector. For large vectors, this will cause stack overflow. To solve this problem, we implement the quick sort algorithm as a non-recursive algorithm. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
