我想找出字典查找和数组的二进制搜索查找之间的权衡点。我期待字典的恒定时间查找,以及二进制搜索的对数时间查找,具体取决于集合的大小,对于较小的集合,二进制搜索的性能更好。
然而,当我看到以下结果时,我感到很惊讶:
我很惊讶: 1. 二分搜索起初呈对数增长,然后增长得更快。2. 哈希起初相当一致,但随后也开始缓慢增长。3. 二分查找永远比散列查找好。下面是我的代码。我做错了什么?

for (int totalCount = 1; totalCount < 1000*1000*10; totalCount*=2)
{
var a = Enumerable.Range(0, totalCount).Select(_ => r.Next(int.MaxValue)).Distinct().Select(v => new thing(v)).OrderBy(t => t.value).ToArray();
var d = a.ToDictionary(t => t.value);
