如何在Java中评估递归算法的效用？

我正在尝试学习算法和java.运行320×320的网格,100次试验比非递归的Quick-Union实施快5倍.但是,超过大约400×400(160,000个站点)的网格,我有堆栈溢出错误.

我知道java没有针对尾递归进行优化(更不用说非尾递归)了.但是,我认为有时可以选择递归算法而不是非递归版本,因为它可以更快地运行并且同样安全.

请记住,我只是在学习这些东西,而我的代码可能不是最佳的.但是,为了更好地理解我的问题,我将其包括在内.

问题

当递归算法可以安全地在java应用程序中使用时,评估的过程是什么(假设它比非递归替代方案运行得更快)？

(注意：2x比率只是前一个当前运行时间除以前一个运行时间)
