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。

注意我的快速回答。


当前回答

我在这里没有看到很多linq解决方案。

我不确定性能的影响,但我通常坚持linq作为经验法则,然后在必要时进行优化。

public bool CompareTwoArrays(byte[] array1, byte[] array2)
 {
   return !array1.Where((t, i) => t != array2[i]).Any();
 }

请注意,这只适用于它们是相同大小的数组。 一个扩展可能是这样的

public bool CompareTwoArrays(byte[] array1, byte[] array2)
 {
   if (array1.Length != array2.Length) return false;
   return !array1.Where((t, i) => t != array2[i]).Any();
 }

其他回答

我发布了一个类似的关于检查byte[]是否全是0的问题。(SIMD代码被打败了,所以我从这个答案中删除了它。)下面是我比较过的最快的代码:

static unsafe bool EqualBytesLongUnrolled (byte[] data1, byte[] data2)
{
    if (data1 == data2)
        return true;
    if (data1.Length != data2.Length)
        return false;

    fixed (byte* bytes1 = data1, bytes2 = data2) {
        int len = data1.Length;
        int rem = len % (sizeof(long) * 16);
        long* b1 = (long*)bytes1;
        long* b2 = (long*)bytes2;
        long* e1 = (long*)(bytes1 + len - rem);

        while (b1 < e1) {
            if (*(b1) != *(b2) || *(b1 + 1) != *(b2 + 1) || 
                *(b1 + 2) != *(b2 + 2) || *(b1 + 3) != *(b2 + 3) ||
                *(b1 + 4) != *(b2 + 4) || *(b1 + 5) != *(b2 + 5) || 
                *(b1 + 6) != *(b2 + 6) || *(b1 + 7) != *(b2 + 7) ||
                *(b1 + 8) != *(b2 + 8) || *(b1 + 9) != *(b2 + 9) || 
                *(b1 + 10) != *(b2 + 10) || *(b1 + 11) != *(b2 + 11) ||
                *(b1 + 12) != *(b2 + 12) || *(b1 + 13) != *(b2 + 13) || 
                *(b1 + 14) != *(b2 + 14) || *(b1 + 15) != *(b2 + 15))
                return false;
            b1 += 16;
            b2 += 16;
        }

        for (int i = 0; i < rem; i++)
            if (data1 [len - 1 - i] != data2 [len - 1 - i])
                return false;

        return true;
    }
}

测量两个256MB字节数组:

UnsafeCompare                           : 86,8784 ms
EqualBytesSimd                          : 71,5125 ms
EqualBytesSimdUnrolled                  : 73,1917 ms
EqualBytesLongUnrolled                  : 39,8623 ms

我会使用不安全的代码并运行for循环比较Int32指针。

也许您还应该考虑检查数组是否为非空。

P/调用能力激活!

[DllImport("msvcrt.dll", CallingConvention=CallingConvention.Cdecl)]
static extern int memcmp(byte[] b1, byte[] b2, long count);

static bool ByteArrayCompare(byte[] b1, byte[] b2)
{
    // Validate buffers are the same length.
    // This also ensures that the count does not exceed the length of either buffer.  
    return b1.Length == b2.Length && memcmp(b1, b2, b1.Length) == 0;
}

抱歉,如果你正在寻找一种管理的方式,你已经正确地做了,据我所知,在BCL中没有内置的方法来做这个。

你应该添加一些初始的空检查,然后重用它,就好像它在BCL。

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...
