Use the entrySet() iterator when retrieving values from a Map, instead of retrieving values from the Map while iterating over the Map keys using keySet(). Performance of this is better than calling Map.get(key) for each entry while iterating also.

Example:

bad performance:

for (String name : map.keySet()) {
 String value = map.getValue(name);
...
}

 

good performance:

 

for (Map.Entry<String, String> entry : map.entrySet()) {
 String value = entry.getValue();
...
}
