我运行了一个基准测试，尝试了以下每种策略来过滤列表元素：
- 将所需元素复制到新列表中
使用 Iterator.remove（） 从 ArrayList 中删除不需要的元素- 用于从 中删除不需要的元素
Iterator.remove()LinkedList
- 就地压缩列表（将所需元素移动到较低的位置）
- 按索引 （） 删除
List.remove(int)ArrayList
- 按索引 （） 删除
List.remove(int)LinkedList
每次我用100000个随机实例填充列表并使用筛选条件（基于哈希代码），该条件将接受95%的元素并拒绝剩余的5%（与问题中陈述的比例相同，但列表较小，因为我没有时间对250000个元素进行测试。Point
平均时间（在我的旧MacBook Pro上：Core 2 Duo，2.2GHz，3Gb RAM）是：
CopyIntoNewListWithIterator : 4.24ms
CopyIntoNewListWithoutIterator: 3.57ms
FilterLinkedListInPlace : 4.21ms
RandomRemoveByIndex : 312.50ms
SequentialRemoveByIndex : 33632.28ms
ShiftDown : 3.75ms
因此，从 a 中删除索引元素比从 中删除元素的成本高 300 倍以上，并且可能比其他方法贵 6000-10000 倍（避免线性搜索和LinkedListArrayListarraycopy)
在这里，这四种更快的方法之间似乎没有太大区别，但是我再次运行了这四种方法，并给出了一个500000个元素的列表，结果如下：
CopyIntoNewListWithIterator : 92.49ms
CopyIntoNewListWithoutIterator: 71.77ms
FilterLinkedListInPlace : 15.73ms
ShiftDown : 11.86ms
我猜想，随着缓存内存的增大而成为限制因素，因此创建列表的第二个副本的成本变得很高。
