title: Speeding up a linked list?
body: <p>I'm a student and fairly new to Java.  I was looking over the different speeds achieved by the two collections in Java, Linked List, and ArrayList.  I know that an ArrayList is much much faster at looking up and placing in values into its indexes.  My question is:</p>
  
  <p>how can one make a linked list faster, if at all possible?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks for any help.</p>
