Fastest way to read a CSV file java
tl;dr
Reading a 20 MB CSV file, and instantiating an object per row, takes less than 1 second in total elapsed time.
Details
You did not define the term “slow”. So I did an experiment, a casual benchmark test.
First we create a 20 MB file of 40,000 Person records. Each Person holds a first & last name in French, a UUID, and some arbitrary text as a description. The data is written as four columns in a CSV file in UTF-8. I used the Apache Commons CSV library to write and read.
Secondly, this written file is read. Each row of data is read into memory, then used to instantiate and collect a Person object.
Reading this file, and instantiating Person object for each row took less than one second in total elapsed time. Each row takes about 20K nanoseconds. Actually, this includes reading the file twice, as we do a scan to count the number of rows of data to set initial capacity of the collected instances. Also, we are parsing a hex string input into the 128-bit value of a UUID, so we have some time spent on data-processing (not just reading).
Here is the Person class.
package work.basil.example;
import java.util.UUID;
public class Person
{
// Static
static public String LOREM_IPSUM = "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum.";
// Member variables.
public String givenName, surname, description;
public UUID id;
public Person ( String givenName , String surname , UUID id , String description)
{
this.givenName = givenName;
this.surname = surname;
this.id = id;
this.description = description ;
}
@Override
public String toString ()
{
return "Person{ " +
"givenName='" + givenName + '\'' +
" | surname='" + surname + '\'' +
" | id='" + id + '\'' +
" }";
}
}
And here is the complete app that writes and then reads the 20 MB file. Please study and critique, as I whipped this up in a jiffy. I’ve not double-checked my work.
You will find a write method, and a read method. The main method calls both, and tracks time.

On csv-parsers-comparison we can find comparison between CSV Reader/Writer-s. The fastest is uniVocity CSV parser. Third is Jackson which I personally prefer. Using @Basil Bourque great example I changed it a little bit and used Jackson classes. Method read returns MappingIterator which you can use to initialise your heap object (see how I added elements to List). I did not include time details but you can do it yourself using Basil's and this solution:
