Staffan, (1) ByteArrayInputSteram is no longer needed in ZipFile (2) You've changed the lock region in ZipFile.getInputSteram. Given we are not doing ByteArrayInpusteram for this method, can we just not touch this method and the class ZipFileInputSteram()? The concern is that we did some changes in that area back to 2010 and triggered a complicated race condition regression [1], it was finally fixed after lot of rounds of discussion. I still have all those emails in my inbox. It would be better to keep whatever works for now, instead of re-fresh all the memory (read all those emails) to figure out if the latest change might have a negative impact. The getBytes() implementation looks good to me. Thanks! -Sherman [1] http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/core-libs-dev/2011-March/006355.html On 06/05/2015 11:09 AM, Staffan Friberg wrote:
Hi Sherman,
I have a new webrev which reverts that part, http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~sfriberg/JDK-8080640/webrev.2/
Summary of changes Reduce lock region in ZipFile.getInputstream Add private ZipFile.getBytes that can be used in select places in the JDK where all bytes will be read
Could you sponsor this change once it has been reviewed?
Thanks, Staffan

Staffan,
I'm not convinced that the benefit here is significant enough to change the getInputStream() to return a ByteArrayInputStream, given this can be easily achieved by wrapping the returned byte[] from getBytes(ZipEntry) at user's site. I would suggest to file a separate rfe on this disagreement and move on with the agreed getBytes() for now.
Thanks, -Sherman

Here is an updated webrev which uses a byte[] directly and also uses ByteArrayInputStream in ZipFile for small entries below 128k.
I'm not sure about the benefit of doing the ByteArrayInputStream in ZipFile.getInputStream. It has the consequence of changing the "expected" behavior of getInputStream() (instead of return an input stream waiting for reading, it now reads all bytes in advance), something we might not want to do in a performance tuning. Though it might be reasonable to guess everyone get an input stream is to read all bytes from it later.

//Staffan
Agree that it will change the behavior slightly, but as you said it is probably expected that some one will read the stream eventually. We could reduce the size further if that makes a difference, if the size is below 65k we would not use more memory than the buffer allocated for the InflaterStream today. The total allocation would be slightly larger for deflated entries as we would allocate a byte[] for the compressed bytes, but it would be GC:able and not kept alive. So from a memory perspective the difference is very limited.
//Staffan Hi,
Bumping this thread to get some more comments on the concern about changing the ZipFile.getInputStream behavior. The benefit of doing this change is that any read of small entries from ZIP and JAR files will be much faster and less resources will be held, including native resources normally held by the ZipInputStream.
The behavior change that will occur is that the full entry will be read as part of creating the stream and not lazily as might be expected. However when getting a today InputStream zip file will be accessed to read information about the size of the entry, so the zip file is already touched when getting an InputStream, but not the compressed bytes.
I'm fine with removing this part of the change and just push the private getBytes function and the updates to the JDK libraries to use it.
Thanks, Staffan
