It's a reasonable solution. The problem with this solution is mentioned in the article, you necessarily have the worst case memory usage because you have to store everything in the map first. If you don't have too much to store, it will work.
Is this basically what Java is doing?
I think that maybe the techniques in this article are a little more complex, allowing you to optimize further (basically continue working as soon as possible instead of just waiting for everything to complete and reordering after the fact) but I’d be curious to know if I’ve missed something.
