我发布了一个类似的关于检查byte[]是否全是0的问题。(SIMD代码被打败了，所以我从这个答案中删除了它。)下面是我比较过的最快的代码:

static unsafe bool EqualBytesLongUnrolled (byte[] data1, byte[] data2)
{
    if (data1 == data2)
        return true;
    if (data1.Length != data2.Length)
        return false;

    fixed (byte* bytes1 = data1, bytes2 = data2) {
        int len = data1.Length;
        int rem = len % (sizeof(long) * 16);
        long* b1 = (long*)bytes1;
        long* b2 = (long*)bytes2;
        long* e1 = (long*)(bytes1 + len - rem);

        while (b1 < e1) {
            if (*(b1) != *(b2) || *(b1 + 1) != *(b2 + 1) || 
                *(b1 + 2) != *(b2 + 2) || *(b1 + 3) != *(b2 + 3) ||
                *(b1 + 4) != *(b2 + 4) || *(b1 + 5) != *(b2 + 5) || 
                *(b1 + 6) != *(b2 + 6) || *(b1 + 7) != *(b2 + 7) ||
                *(b1 + 8) != *(b2 + 8) || *(b1 + 9) != *(b2 + 9) || 
                *(b1 + 10) != *(b2 + 10) || *(b1 + 11) != *(b2 + 11) ||
                *(b1 + 12) != *(b2 + 12) || *(b1 + 13) != *(b2 + 13) || 
                *(b1 + 14) != *(b2 + 14) || *(b1 + 15) != *(b2 + 15))
                return false;
            b1 += 16;
            b2 += 16;
        }

        for (int i = 0; i < rem; i++)
            if (data1 [len - 1 - i] != data2 [len - 1 - i])
                return false;

        return true;
    }
}

测量两个256MB字节数组:

找不到一个我完全满意的解决方案(合理的性能，但没有不安全的代码/pinvoke)，所以我想出了这个，没有真正的原创，但工作:

    /// <summary>
    /// 
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="array1"></param>
    /// <param name="array2"></param>
    /// <param name="bytesToCompare"> 0 means compare entire arrays</param>
    /// <returns></returns>
    public static bool ArraysEqual(byte[] array1, byte[] array2, int bytesToCompare = 0)
    {
        if (array1.Length != array2.Length) return false;

        var length = (bytesToCompare == 0) ? array1.Length : bytesToCompare;
        var tailIdx = length - length % sizeof(Int64);

        //check in 8 byte chunks
        for (var i = 0; i < tailIdx; i += sizeof(Int64))
        {
            if (BitConverter.ToInt64(array1, i) != BitConverter.ToInt64(array2, i)) return false;
        }

        //check the remainder of the array, always shorter than 8 bytes
        for (var i = tailIdx; i < length; i++)
        {
            if (array1[i] != array2[i]) return false;
        }

        return true;
    }

与本页上的其他解决方案相比，性能:

简单循环:19837滴答，1.00

*位收敛器:4886 ticks, 4.06

unsafcompare: 1636 ticks, 12.12

EqualBytesLongUnrolled: 637 tick, 31.09

P/Invoke memcmp: 369 ticks, 53.67

在linqpad上测试，1000000字节的相同数组(最坏的情况)，每个数组500次迭代。

这与其他方法类似，但这里的不同之处在于，不存在我可以一次检查的下一个最高字节数，例如，如果我有63个字节(在我的SIMD示例中)，我可以检查前32个字节的相等性，然后是后32个字节，这比检查32个字节、16个字节、8个字节等等要快。您输入的第一个检查是比较所有字节所需要的唯一检查。

这确实在我的测试中名列前茅，但仅以微弱之差。

下面的代码正是我在airbreather/ArrayComparePerf.cs中测试它的方式。

public unsafe bool SIMDNoFallThrough()    #requires  System.Runtime.Intrinsics.X86
{
    if (a1 == null || a2 == null)
        return false;

    int length0 = a1.Length;

    if (length0 != a2.Length) return false;

    fixed (byte* b00 = a1, b01 = a2)
    {
        byte* b0 = b00, b1 = b01, last0 = b0 + length0, last1 = b1 + length0, last32 = last0 - 31;

        if (length0 > 31)
        {
            while (b0 < last32)
            {
                if (Avx2.MoveMask(Avx2.CompareEqual(Avx.LoadVector256(b0), Avx.LoadVector256(b1))) != -1)
                    return false;
                b0 += 32;
                b1 += 32;
            }
            return Avx2.MoveMask(Avx2.CompareEqual(Avx.LoadVector256(last0 - 32), Avx.LoadVector256(last1 - 32))) == -1;
        }

        if (length0 > 15)
        {
            if (Sse2.MoveMask(Sse2.CompareEqual(Sse2.LoadVector128(b0), Sse2.LoadVector128(b1))) != 65535)
                return false;
            return Sse2.MoveMask(Sse2.CompareEqual(Sse2.LoadVector128(last0 - 16), Sse2.LoadVector128(last1 - 16))) == 65535;
        }

        if (length0 > 7)
        {
            if (*(ulong*)b0 != *(ulong*)b1)
                return false;
            return *(ulong*)(last0 - 8) == *(ulong*)(last1 - 8);
        }

        if (length0 > 3)
        {
            if (*(uint*)b0 != *(uint*)b1)
                return false;
            return *(uint*)(last0 - 4) == *(uint*)(last1 - 4);
        }

        if (length0 > 1)
        {
            if (*(ushort*)b0 != *(ushort*)b1)
                return false;
            return *(ushort*)(last0 - 2) == *(ushort*)(last1 - 2);
        }

        return *b0 == *b1;
    }
}

如果没有首选的SIMD，与现有的longpointer算法相同的方法:

public unsafe bool LongPointersNoFallThrough()
{
    if (a1 == null || a2 == null || a1.Length != a2.Length)
        return false;
    fixed (byte* p1 = a1, p2 = a2)
    {
        byte* x1 = p1, x2 = p2;
        int l = a1.Length;
        if ((l & 8) != 0)
        {
            for (int i = 0; i < l / 8; i++, x1 += 8, x2 += 8)
                if (*(long*)x1 != *(long*)x2) return false;
            return *(long*)(x1 + (l - 8)) == *(long*)(x2 + (l - 8));
        }
        if ((l & 4) != 0)
        {
            if (*(int*)x1 != *(int*)x2) return false; x1 += 4; x2 += 4;
            return *(int*)(x1 + (l - 4)) == *(int*)(x2 + (l - 4));
        }
        if ((l & 2) != 0)
        {
            if (*(short*)x1 != *(short*)x2) return false; x1 += 2; x2 += 2;
            return *(short*)(x1 + (l - 2)) == *(short*)(x2 + (l - 2));
        }
        return *x1 == *x2;
    }
}

抱歉，如果你正在寻找一种管理的方式，你已经正确地做了，据我所知，在BCL中没有内置的方法来做这个。

你应该添加一些初始的空检查，然后重用它，就好像它在BCL。

几乎可以肯定，这个版本比这里给出的任何其他版本都要慢得多，但编写起来很有趣。

static bool ByteArrayEquals(byte[] a1, byte[] a2) 
{
    return a1.Zip(a2, (l, r) => l == r).All(x => x);
}

我开发了一个方法，稍微击败memcmp() (plinth的答案)和非常轻微击败EqualBytesLongUnrolled() (Arek Bulski的答案)在我的PC上。基本上，它以4而不是8展开循环。

2019年3月30日更新：

从。net核心3.0开始，我们有了SIMD支持!

这个解决方案在我的PC上是最快的:
