Synchronization bottleneck in EntityModeToTuplizerMapping
---------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HHH-2645
                 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-2645
             Project: Hibernate3
          Issue Type: Patch
          Components: core
    Affects Versions: 3.2.4.sp1, 3.2.4, 3.2.3
         Environment: Hibernate 3.2.3 (and later), Sun's JDK 1.4.2_12 (server VM) on SunOS 5.10, Oracle 10g R2
            Reporter: Erik Bergersjö
            Priority: Minor


We have had a major performance bottleneck in EntityModeToTuplizerMapping with Hibernate version 3.2.3 and the code for that class in 3.2.4sp1 is unchanged. We have found a solution that solves the issue and would like to get it into the real version. I submitted to the user forum first and was asked to create a JIRA issue.

The problematic line is:

private final Map tuplizers = Collections.synchronizedMap( new SequencedHashMap() );

We have changed it to (using util.concurrent):

private final Map tuplizers = new EDU.oswego.cs.dl.util.concurrent.ConcurrentReaderHashMap();

This change alone makes our use cases six times faster. The difference is that ConcurrentReaderHashMap handles concurrent readers much better, they don't have to wait for each other.

The problem occurs when a high number of threads try to initialize sets (see mapping below). A thread dump showed a high number of threads waiting for the same monitor, see partial stack trace below.

The code runs on Sun's JDK 1.4.2_12 (server VM) on SunOS 5.10 and the kernel spends a lot of time handling mutexes with the original implementation. That time disappears from the radar screen with the fixed version.

Example mapping for set:

[code]
<set name="lines" lazy="true"  inverse="true" cascade="all-delete-orphan">
  <key>
      <column name="col1" not-null="true" />
      <column name="col2" not-null="true" />
   </key>
   <one-to-many class="LineClass" />
</set>
[/code]
