How is the performance of Jackson ObjectMapper as static field in a singleton class?












0














I am thinking of using Jackson ObjectMapper for serializing/deserializing data for my production project.



Right now I have declared ObjectMapper as a static field in a singleton class (Spring Component) having serialize and deserialize methods. Both these method will use this static variable.
I am aware that the Jackson ObjectMapper is thread safe but I want to know will there be any performance issues observed when these methods are called multiple (of the order thousands) times concurrently?



I read it somewhere that object serialization is a heavy weight
and lengthy operation and there can be synchronization delays since the incoming threads can be locked at a given time waiting for the owner of the lock to complete the serialization/deserialization of JSON. Is it true?



The reason I don't want to initialize a new instance of ObjectMapper in each of serialize/deserialize methods is because it is a costly operation.



@Component
public class converter {

private static final ObjectMapper OBJECTMAPPER = new ObjectMapper().configure(
DeserializationFeature.FAIL_ON_UNKNOWN_PROPERTIES, false).setSerializationInclusion(
JsonInclude.Include.NON_NULL);

public String serialize(Object value) {
OBJECTMAPPER.writeValueAsString(...)
...
}
public Object deserialize(String value) {
OBJECTMAPPER.readValue(...)
...
}
}

  • If you are really very concern of the performance , you can consider to further use ObjectReader/ObjectWriter over ObjectMapper . Also consider using Afterburner Jackson module.

  • The fact that it's thread-safe doesn't mean it uses locks. It is designed to be used concurrently.
