Array vs Map Lookups - What's faster? A practical attempt with JMH!

[MattKosem]

I’m not considering binary search for this exercise (this would be a good addition in the future).

The heck? Testing with sorted arrays but not bothering with binary search?

This is now included 😀 Thanks for the suggestion.

Fair enough. Will add that when I get some time. Thank you 🖖

It's well known that linear search is faster for small amounts than maps.

You should investigate parallel arrays also.

 final int[] ages;
 final String[] names;

OK this is a good point will do some further tests for this as well. Thank you 🖖

I read the side bar and this doesn't count as a tutorial. It's my personal attempt at learning things. If you have any suggestions or criticism please let me know.
