HashSet与List性能

很明显,泛型HashSet类的搜索性能高于泛型List类.只需将基于散列的密钥与线性方法进行比较即可List.

但是,计算散列键本身可能需要一些CPU周期,因此对于少量项目,线性搜索可以是一个真正的替代HashSet.

我的问题:收支平衡在哪里？

为了简化场景(并且公平),我们假设List该类使用元素的Equals()方法来标识项目.

很多人都说,一旦你达到速度实际上是一个HashSet总是会打败的关注的大小List,但这取决于你在做什么.

假设你有一个List平均只有5个项目.在大量循环中,如果每个循环添加或删除单个项目,您最好使用a List.

我在我的机器上对此进行了测试,而且,它必须非常小才能获得优势List.对于短字符串列表,对于大小为20之后的对象,优势在大小5之后消失.

这是代码:
