With the patch applied, writing Doubles is between 1% and 2% faster and has the 
added benefit of cutting down on garbage collection

[jira] [Commented] (AVRO-1720) Add an avro-tool to count records in an avro file

2017-07-21 Thread Janosch Woschitz (JIRA)

 ] 

Janosch Woschitz commented on AVRO-1720:


Just as a follow-up since there seems to be not much progress on this ticket: 
for the moment I made a separate binary available which allows efficient and 
convenient counting of records contained in a single avro file or in a folder 
containing several avro files.

The binaries, documentation and source are available here: 
https://github.com/jwoschitz/avrocount

This project tries to fill this gap (at least) until a similar functionality is 
provided by avro-tools. Over time there were also several improvements to this 
project in comparison to the original patch.

It would be great if these improvements would also find a way back into the 
Apache Avro project in the longterm. Until then this project can be used in 
addition to the currently existing avro-tools.

> If you're dealing with bigger avro files (>100MB) it would be nice to have a 
> way to quickly count the amount of records contained within that file.
> With the current state of avro-tools the only way to achieve this (to my 
> current knowledge) is to dump the data to json and count the amount of 
> records. For bigger files this might take a while due to the serialization 
> overhead and since every record needs to be looked at.
> I added a new tool which is optimized for counting records, it does not 
> serialize the records and reads only the block count for each block.
