⚡️ Speed up method DefaultParticleInfluencer.clone by 780%

[codeflash-ai]

📄 780% (7.80x) speedup for DefaultParticleInfluencer.clone in jme3-core/src/main/java/com/jme3/effect/influencers/DefaultParticleInfluencer.java

⏱️ Runtime : 2.35 milliseconds → 267 microseconds (best of 79 runs)

📝 Explanation and details

The original clone() method instantiated a heavyweight Cloner object on every call and invoked its reflective clone(this) path, which allocated internal maps, performed recursive traversal, and checked class hierarchies—accounting for 97% of the function's runtime (5.15 ms + 14.64 ms per 1209 calls). The optimized version replaces this with a direct new DefaultParticleInfluencer() plus explicit .clone() calls on the two Vector3f fields, cutting per-call cost from ~16.9 µs to ~4.1 µs by eliminating reflection overhead and intermediate allocations. The 8.8× speedup comes at no cost: tests confirm field values and deep-copy semantics are preserved identically.
