AsymptoticsExplained
The asymptotics of Guava's utilities are entirely predictable, but are listed here for completeness.
| Implementation | add |
add(i, elem) |
remove(i) |
contains |
Iteration | size |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
ArrayList (JDK) |
O(1) | O(n) | O(n) | O(n) | O(n) | O(1) |
LinkedList (JDK) |
O(1) | O(n) | O(n) | O(n) | O(n) | O(1) |
CopyOnWriteArrayList (JDK) |
O(n) | O(n) | O(n) | O(n) | O(n) | O(1) |
ImmutableList |
N/A | N/A | N/A | O(n) | O(n) | O(1) |
ImmutableSet.asList() |
N/A | N/A | N/A | O(1) | O(n) | O(1) |
| Implementation | add |
remove |
contains |
Iteration | size |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
HashSet (JDK) |
O(1) | O(1) | O(1) |
O(max n) *
|
O(1) |
LinkedHashSet (JDK) |
O(1) | O(1) | O(1) | O(n) | O(1) |
TreeSet (JDK) |
O(log n) | O(log n) | O(log n) | O(n) |
O(1) **
|
CopyOnWriteArraySet (JDK) |
O(n) | O(n) | O(n) | O(n) | O(1) |
ImmutableSet |
N/A | N/A | O(1) | O(n) | O(1) |
ImmutableSortedSet |
N/A | N/A | O(log n) | O(n) | O(1) |
* HashSet iteration takes time proportional to the maximum number of
elements the HashSet has ever had, not proportional to the current number of
elements.
** TreeSet.subSet(...).size() takes time proportional to the size of the
subset.
Note: n is the number of distinct elements in the multiset.
| Implementation | Performs like a... | size() |
count(E) |
add(E, int) |
remove(E, int) |
setCount(E, int) |
Iterate through entrySet() or elementSet()
|
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
HashMultiset |
HashMap<E, Integer> |
O(1) | O(1) | O(1) | O(1) | O(1) |
O(max n) *
|
LinkedHashMultiset |
LinkedHashMap<E, Integer> |
O(1) | O(1) | O(1) | O(1) | O(1) | O(n) |
TreeMultiset |
TreeMap<E, Integer> |
O(1) **
|
O(log n) | O(log n) | O(log n) | O(log n) | O(n) |
ConcurrentHashMultiset |
ConcurrentHashMap<E, AtomicInteger> |
O(n) | O(1) | O(1) | O(1) | O(1) | O(n) |
ImmutableMultiset |
ImmutableMap<E, Integer> |
O(1) | O(1) | O(1) | O(1) | O(1) | O(n) |
ImmutableSortedMultiset |
ImmutableSortedMap<E, Integer> |
O(1) | O(log n) | O(log n) | O(log n) | O(log n) | O(n) |
* Like HashMap, the iteration cost through the entrySet is linear in the
maximum number of elements the HashMultiset has ever had, not the number it
has now.
** TreeMultiset.subMultiset().size() takes time O(log n).
k is the number of distinct keys; n is the number of distinct entries;
#(key) is the number of entries associated with key. Where not specified,
the asymptotics are equivalent to the "obvious" implementation based on the
"Performs like a..." column.
| Implementation | Performs like a... | size() |
get(K) |
put(K, V) |
containsEntry(K, V) |
Iterate through entries()
|
Iterate through asMap().entrySet()
|
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
ArrayListMultimap |
HashMap<K, ArrayList<V>> |
O(1) | O(1) | O(1) | O(#(key)) |
O(max k + n) | O(max k) |
LinkedListMultimap |
LinkedHashMap<K, LinkedList<V>> |
O(1) | O(1) | O(1) | O(#(key)) |
O(n) | O(k) |
HashMultimap |
HashMap<K, HashSet<V>> |
O(1) | O(1) | O(1) | O(1) | O(max n) | O(max k) |
LinkedHashMultimap |
LinkedHashMap<K, LinkedHashSet<V>> |
O(1) | O(1) | O(1) | O(1) | O(n) | O(k) |
TreeMultimap |
TreeMap<K, TreeSet<V>> |
O(1) | O(log k) | O(log k + log #(key)) |
O(log k + log #(key)) |
O(n) | O(k) |
ImmutableListMultimap |
ImmutableMap<K, ImmutableList<V>> |
O(1) | O(1) | N/A | O(#(key)) | O(n) | O(k) |
ImmutableSetMultimap |
ImmutableMap<K, ImmutableSet<V>> |
O(1) | O(1) | N/A | O(1) | O(n) | O(k) |
