CalculateAverage_stephenvonworley submission

[stephenvonworley]

Hello, I'd like to make a new submission for the 1BRC! The class name is:
CalculateAverage_stephenvonworley

prepare_stephenvonworley.sh uses Graal's native-image to generate a precompiled binary named CalculateAverage_stephenvonworley_image.

This solution is an optimized scalar parser, which combines most of the best ideas so far, plus some improvements of my own.

My code checks for hash collisions at lines 298, 318, and 323.

On 8 cores of a Xeon 2650 v3, the elapsed time is 2.18 seconds. Should run faster on your setup.

Thanks for putting this together, Gunnar! It must be a lot of work, I appreciate it.

Check List:

• You have run ./mvnw verify and the project builds successfully
• Tests pass (./test.sh <username> shows no differences between expected and actual outputs)
• All formatting changes by the build are committed
• Your launch script is named calculate_average_<username>.sh (make sure to match casing of your GH user name) and is executable
• Output matches that of calculate_average_baseline.sh
• For new entries, or after substantial changes: When implementing custom hash structures, please point to where you deal with hash collisions (line number)

• Execution time: 2.18s (on 8 cores of my personal system)
• Execution time of reference implementation: 256s

Hi @gunnarmorling. Thanks a bunch for putting together the 1BRC, it was a lot of fun!

I never got the chance to optimize my inner loop: based on the solutions and some post-challenge experiments, I'm pretty sure there's a scalar Java implementation that runs in about 1.0 seconds on your 8 core test rig. I might code it up some time, just to find out...

Speaking of which, various people have had the idea of maintaining some solutions (scalar/vector, Unsafe/safe, etc) to which improvements could be submitted in ongoing fashion. If something like that ever happens, I'd be willing to pitch in to help manage it...

Once again, thanks!
