我怎样才能做得快呢?
当然我可以这样做:
static bool ByteArrayCompare(byte[] a1, byte[] a2)
{
if (a1.Length != a2.Length)
return false;
for (int i=0; i<a1.Length; i++)
if (a1[i]!=a2[i])
return false;
return true;
}
但我正在寻找一个BCL函数或一些高度优化的已证明的方法来做到这一点。
java.util.Arrays.equals((sbyte[])(Array)a1, (sbyte[])(Array)a2);
工作得很好，但这似乎不适用于x64。

我开发了一个方法，稍微击败memcmp() (plinth的答案)和非常轻微击败EqualBytesLongUnrolled() (Arek Bulski的答案)在我的PC上。基本上，它以4而不是8展开循环。

其他回答
我想到了许多显卡内置的块传输加速方法。但是这样你就必须按字节复制所有的数据，所以如果你不想在非托管和依赖硬件的代码中实现你的整个逻辑，这对你没有多大帮助……
Another way of optimization similar to the approach shown above would be to store as much of your data as possible in a long[] rather than a byte[] right from the start, for example if you are reading it sequentially from a binary file, or if you use a memory mapped file, read in data as long[] or single long values. Then, your comparison loop will only need 1/8th of the number of iterations it would have to do for a byte[] containing the same amount of data. It is a matter of when and how often you need to compare vs. when and how often you need to access the data in a byte-by-byte manner, e.g. to use it in an API call as a parameter in a method that expects a byte[]. In the end, you only can tell if you really know the use case...
看看。net是如何处理字符串的。Equals，你可以看到它使用了一个叫做EqualsHelper的私有方法，它有一个“不安全”的指针实现。net Reflector是你的朋友，可以看到内部是如何完成的。
这可以用作字节数组比较的模板，我在博客文章中用c#快速字节数组比较中做了一个实现。我还做了一些基本的基准测试，看看什么时候安全的实现比不安全的实现更快。
也就是说，除非你真的需要杀手级的性能，否则我会选择简单的fr循环比较。
简单的回答是:
public bool Compare(byte[] b1, byte[] b2)
{
return Encoding.ASCII.GetString(b1) == Encoding.ASCII.GetString(b2);
}
通过这种方式，您可以使用优化的. net字符串比较来进行字节数组比较，而不需要编写不安全的代码。这是它如何在后台完成的:
private unsafe static bool EqualsHelper(String strA, String strB)
{
Contract.Requires(strA != null);
Contract.Requires(strB != null);
Contract.Requires(strA.Length == strB.Length);
int length = strA.Length;
fixed (char* ap = &strA.m_firstChar) fixed (char* bp = &strB.m_firstChar)
{
char* a = ap;
char* b = bp;
// Unroll the loop
#if AMD64
// For the AMD64 bit platform we unroll by 12 and
// check three qwords at a time. This is less code
// than the 32 bit case and is shorter
// pathlength.
while (length >= 12)
{
if (*(long*)a != *(long*)b) return false;
if (*(long*)(a+4) != *(long*)(b+4)) return false;
if (*(long*)(a+8) != *(long*)(b+8)) return false;
a += 12; b += 12; length -= 12;
}
#else
while (length >= 10)
{
if (*(int*)a != *(int*)b) return false;
if (*(int*)(a+2) != *(int*)(b+2)) return false;
if (*(int*)(a+4) != *(int*)(b+4)) return false;
if (*(int*)(a+6) != *(int*)(b+6)) return false;
if (*(int*)(a+8) != *(int*)(b+8)) return false;
a += 10; b += 10; length -= 10;
}
#endif
// This depends on the fact that the String objects are
// always zero terminated and that the terminating zero is not included
// in the length. For odd string sizes, the last compare will include
// the zero terminator.
while (length > 0)
{
if (*(int*)a != *(int*)b) break;
a += 2; b += 2; length -= 2;
}
return (length <= 0);
}
}
因为上面的许多花哨的解决方案都不能与UWP一起工作，而且因为我喜欢Linq和函数方法，所以我向您介绍我对这个问题的版本。 为了在出现第一个差异时避免比较，我选择了.FirstOrDefault()
public static bool CompareByteArrays(byte[] ba0, byte[] ba1) =>
!(ba0.Length != ba1.Length || Enumerable.Range(1,ba0.Length)
.FirstOrDefault(n => ba0[n] != ba1[n]) > 0);
让我们再加一个!
最近微软发布了一个特殊的NuGet包System.Runtime.CompilerServices.Unsafe。它的特殊之处在于它是用IL编写的，并且提供了c#中无法直接使用的低级功能。
它的一个方法unsafety . as <T>(object)允许将任何引用类型转换为另一个引用类型，跳过任何安全检查。这通常是一个非常糟糕的主意，但如果两种类型具有相同的结构，它就可以工作。因此，我们可以使用这个函数将字节[]转换为长[]:
bool CompareWithUnsafeLibrary(byte[] a1, byte[] a2)
{
if (a1.Length != a2.Length) return false;
var longSize = (int)Math.Floor(a1.Length / 8.0);
var long1 = Unsafe.As<long[]>(a1);
var long2 = Unsafe.As<long[]>(a2);
for (var i = 0; i < longSize; i++)
{
if (long1[i] != long2[i]) return false;
}
for (var i = longSize * 8; i < a1.Length; i++)
{
if (a1[i] != a2[i]) return false;
}
return true;
}
注意long1。Length仍然会返回原始数组的长度，因为它存储在数组内存结构中的字段中。
这个方法没有这里演示的其他方法那么快，但它比朴素方法快得多，不使用不安全的代码或P/Invoke或固定，实现非常简单(IMO)。以下是我的机器上的一些BenchmarkDotNet结果:
