The situation is simple: we have events (objects) that have to be indexed by date. We currently use an OOBTree with the days as keys and lists of objects as values. The objective is to avoid rewriting these lists each time something changes, since we can have tens of thousands of events in the same day. Some kind of btree-based list or set would work, I guess. > Is integer indexing important? > Well, it's an index of dates, so, I guess we could use integers as keys instead of strings, as we are now.
