Abstract
Collection data structures have a major impact on the performance of applications, especially in languages such as Java, C#, or C++. This requires a developer to select an appropriate collection from a large set of possibilities, including different abstractions (e.g. list, map, set, queue), and multiple implementations. In Java, the default implementation of collections is provided by the standard Java Collection Framework (JCF). However, there exist a large variety of less known third-party collection libraries which can provide substantial performance benefits with minimal code changes.
