java switch性能,if else vs java中的switch性能

I'd like to know if there is any efficiency difference between using if statement or switch. For example:

if(){

//code

}

else if(){

//code

}

else{

//code

}

I believe that program needs to go and check all of the if statement even if the first if statement was true.

switch(i){

case 1:

//code

break;

case 2:

//code

break;

But in the switch, there is a break command. Is my approaching right? If not, could you explain the efficiency difference between them?

Switch perf is better than if else as in case of switch there will be one time evaluation . Once it evaluated the switch it knows which case needs to be executed but in case of if else it has to go through all conditions in case of worst scenario.

The longer the list condition, better will be switch performance but for shorter list (just two conditions), it can be slower also

With switch the JVM loads the value to compare and iterates through

the value table to find a match, which is faster in most cases
