Hi Jim,

I multiplied the small test numbers by 100 and this is the result:

Patched JDK:

warmed up run time in ms: 3226
total time in ms: 9586

Clean JDK:

warmed up run time in ms: 3039
total time in ms: 9172

I also run the more meaningful Java2DBench. I had no time to run an extensive benchmark, and only limited to what I think it's the very bare minimum:

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~neugens/100068/comparision-100068-0.1/Summary_Report.html

So, looks like this approach has indeed an impact, although is well within 10%.

Should I try the other approaches? I hardly see how a method call can be faster than an instanceof, but maybe I miss something obvious.

If you want, I can try to setup a machine at work to run a full 72 hour test, but this will take some time ( > 72*2 hours :).

Cheers,
Mario
