High Performance Primitive Collections Realtime (fork of HPPC of Carrotsearch) Fundamental data structures (maps, sets, lists, stacks, queues, heaps, sorts) generated for combinations of object and primitive types to conserve JVM memory and speed up execution. The Realtime fork intend of extending collections while tweaking and optimizations to remove any dynamic allocations at runtime, and low variance execution times.

There is a newer version: 0.7.5
