在java中，list.stream().findFirst().get()与list.get(0)哪个更快？

对比 list.stream().findFirst().get()与list.get(0)

测试代码

public class TestStream {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        compareGetWithStreamFindFirst();
    }

    private static void compareGetWithStreamFindFirst() {
        int size = 100000;
        System.out.println("findFirst耗时：" + calculateStreamFindFirstTime(size));
        System.out.println("get耗时：" + calculateGetTime(size));
        // get耗时：200-300
        // findFirst耗时：110,000-210,000
    }

    private static long calculateGetTime(int size) {
        ArrayList<User> list = new ArrayList<>();
        for (int i = 0; i < size; i++) {
            list.add(new User("aa" + i, "bb" + i));
        }
        long start = System.nanoTime();
        User user = list.get(0);
        long end = System.nanoTime();
        return end - start;
    }

    private static long calculateStreamFindFirstTime(int size) {
        ArrayList<User> list = new ArrayList<>();
        for (int i = 0; i < size; i++) {
            list.add(new User("cc" + i, "dd" + i));
        }
        long start = System.nanoTime();
        User user = list.stream().findFirst().get();
        long end = System.nanoTime();
        return end - start;
    }
}

User.java实体类：

@Data
public class User {
    private String username;
    private String password;

    public User () {}

    public User (String username, String password) {
        this.username = username;
        this.password = password;
    }
}

结论：经多次测试，list.get(0)比list.stream().findFirst().get()的速度快500倍左右。因为findFirst先将list转换为流，需要消耗时间。但由于两者执行时间都很快，所以没有使用System.currentTimeMillis()而是使用System.nanoTime()来计算时间。在日常使用中可以忽略两种方式的执行效率差别。
