Java中将InputStream读取为String, 各种方法的性能对比

如下, 一共存在11种实现方式及其对应的性能测试结果:

1. 使用IOUtils.toString (Apache Utils)

String result = IOUtils.toString(inputStream, StandardCharsets.UTF_8);

2. 使用CharStreams (guava)

String result = CharStreams.toString(new InputStreamReader(inputStream, Charsets.UTF_8));

3. 使用Scanner (JDK)

Scanner s = new Scanner(inputStream).useDelimiter("\\A");
String result = s.hasNext() ? s.next() : "";

4. 使用Stream Api (Java 8). 提醒: 这种方式会将不同的换行符 (比如\r\n) 都替换为 \n.

String result = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(inputStream))
  .lines().collect(Collectors.joining("\n"));

5. 使用parallel Stream Api (Java 8). 提醒: 这种方式会将不同的换行符 (比如\r\n) 都替换为 \n.

String result = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(inputStream))
  .lines().parallel().collect(Collectors.joining("\n"));

6. 使用InputStreamReader 和StringBuilder (JDK)

final int bufferSize = 1024;
final char[] buffer = new char[bufferSize];
final StringBuilder out = new StringBuilder();
Reader in = new InputStreamReader(inputStream, "UTF-8");
for (; ; ) {
    int rsz = in.read(buffer, 0, buffer.length);
    if (rsz < 0)
        break;
    out.append(buffer, 0, rsz);
}
return out.toString();

7. 使用StringWriter 和 IOUtils.copy (Apache Commons)

StringWriter writer = new StringWriter();
IOUtils.copy(inputStream, writer, "UTF-8");
return writer.toString();

8. 使用ByteArrayOutputStream 和 inputStream.read (JDK)

ByteArrayOutputStream result = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
int length;
while ((length = inputStream.read(buffer)) != -1) {
    result.write(buffer, 0, length);
}
return result.toString("UTF-8");

9. 使用BufferedReader (JDK). 提醒: 这种方式会将不同的换行符 (比如\r\n) 都替换为当前系统的换行符(例如, 在windows下是"\r\n").

String newLine = System.getProperty("line.separator");
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(inputStream));
StringBuilder result = new StringBuilder();
String line; boolean flag = false;
while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
    result.append(flag? newLine: "").append(line);
    flag = true;
}
return result.toString();

10. 使用BufferedInputStream 和 ByteArrayOutputStream (JDK)

BufferedInputStream bis = new BufferedInputStream(inputStream);
ByteArrayOutputStream buf = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
int result = bis.read();
while(result != -1) {
    buf.write((byte) result);
    result = bis.read();
}
return buf.toString();

11. 使用 inputStream.read() 和 StringBuilder (JDK). 提醒: 这种方式处理Unicode时存在问题, 例如俄文, 仅在非Unicode字符串下工作正常.

int ch;
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
while((ch = inputStream.read()) != -1)
    sb.append((char)ch);
reset();
return sb.toString();

提醒:
方式 4, 5 和 9 都存在替换换行符的问题. 方式11在Unicode下不能正常工作.

对于短字符串 (length = 175)的测试, url in github (mode = Average Time, system = Linux, score 1,343 is the best):

可以看出8和6是相对更好的选择
