--- Comment #2 from Yegor Kozlov <ye...@dinom.ru> 2012-01-14 13:18:28 UTC --- Finally I had time to review this patch, thanks for your patience. I made a small change to initialize the useFasterWrite from a system property: private static final boolean useFasterWrite = Boolean.getBoolean("org.apache.poi.sstFastWrite"); this way I can test both modes without re-compiling the code. The patch does improve performance but not that much as in your tests. In the best case I got 25% faster which is far from "2~4x performance improvement" observed by you. In my tests I ran TestSSTRecord#testSSTRecordPerformance() three times in two sets, either with org.apache.poi.sstFastWrite=true or org.apache.poi.sstFastWrite=false. Below is the console output: -Dorg.apache.poi.sstFastWrite=true serializer Memory time 0.328 +- 0.003 secs serializer Memory time 0.302 +- 0.004 secs serializer Memory time 0.319 +- 0.001 secs -Dorg.apache.poi.sstFastWrite=false serializer Memory time 0.381 +- 0.002 secs serializer Memory time 0.364 +- 0.004 secs serializer Memory time 0.379 +- 0.001 secs My test environment: java: oracle jdk 1.6.0_29 64 bit option: -Xmx1224m -server cpu: Intel core i5-2400 OS: windows 7 64bit, 8GB RAM size of SST: 1<<20 serializer function: Memory If the performance gain is only 25% then I would stay with current code and not made such big changes. Also, can you provide some high-level tests that show how performance improves when saving real .xls files. How much does SST serialization take from the total time spent in workbook.write() ?
