-------------------------------------
Summary: Eagerly Initialize Instance Variables in Ruby
Implementation
Key: AVRO-3722
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-3722
Project: Apache Avro
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: ruby
Affects Versions: 1.11.1
Reporter: Aaron Patterson
Ruby 3.2 introduced an inline cache scheme based on the "shape" of an object.
The object's shape depends on what instance variables were set on the object
and in what order. Lazily initializing an instance variable can cause poor
inline cache performance because the order in which the IV is set may not be
predictable.
The Ruby version of Avro has an IV that is lazily initialized, and I would like
to eagerly initialize it so that we can improve cache performance.
