ThreadLocalRandom
类的注释如下:
A random number generator isolated to the current thread. Like the global Random generator used by the Math class, a ThreadLocalRandom is initialized with an internally generated seed that may not otherwise be modified. When applicable, use of ThreadLocalRandom rather than shared Random objects in concurrent programs will typically encounter much less overhead and contention. **Use of ThreadLocalRandom is particularly appropriate when multiple tasks **(for example, each a ForkJoinTask) use random numbers in parallel in thread pools.
Usages of this class should typically be of the form: ThreadLocalRandom.current().nextX(...) (where X is Int, Long, etc). When all usages are of this form, it is never possible to accidently share a ThreadLocalRandom across multiple threads.
This class also provides additional commonly used bounded random generation methods.
Instances of ThreadLocalRandom are not cryptographically secure. Consider instead using java.security.SecureRandom in security-sensitive applications. Additionally, default-constructed instances do not use a cryptographically random seed unless the system property java.util.secureRandomSeed is set to true.
Since:
1.7
所以,多线程情况下使用ThreadLocalRandom而不是共享使用Random,因为ThreadLocalRandom比Random能减小竞争,性能更高。
