This PR is an optimization found while researching CORE-207. This should be performance only; it has no functional impact to end users.
The
makeRow()
function is called, as its name implies, for each row of a TSV during download. Thus, it feels worth optimizing.TSVFormatter.makeRow
. Previously, we looped over all attributes in the entity, performed a Seq.indexOf() call to determine the column number that attribute should reside in, made a map of the column number->value, and then created a Seq of values based on the map's keys. Now, we loop over the headers in order and extract each column from the entity, still in order. This is less work and makes themakeRow
function ~1.5x faster.IndexedSeq
all over the place.IndexedSeq
is optimized more for random access, whileList
(which extendsLinearSeq
) is optimized more for sequential access. Our access was sequential. Changing this added another ~1.4x speedup, for a total of ~2.2x.Raw numbers from the JMH benchmark:
