Hi Ulf,

I think it is better to focus on the clean-up for my current transaction. The performance improvement of toUpper() method can be another topic for String class.

Thanks,

Hi,

I did not look into the details, but the hint about performance on String.toLower in WindowsNTFileSystem catched my attention. Here is a very fast converter, which may be enough for calculating the hash:

    // Private ASCII-only optimized version
    public static final String toUpper(final String s) {
        boolean allUpper = true;
        char[] ca = null;
        for (int i=0; i<s.length(); i++) {
            int c = s.charAt(i);
            if (c >= 'a' && c <= 'z') {
                if (allUpper) {
                    ca = s.toCharArray();
                    allUpper = false;
                }
                ca[i] -= '\u0020';
            }
        }
        return allUpper ? s : new String(ca);
    }

It also avoids instantiation of new objects, if there is nothing to change. Note: the equivalent toLower algorithm statistically would be little slower on latin characters, but maybe faster on wide spreaded Unicode characters.

Hi folks,

Please help review the code change for CR7186817 to remove Windows 95/98/ME support. The webrev has been uploaded to http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~dxu/7186817/webrev/ <http://cr.openjdk.java.net/%7Edxu/7186817/webrev/>

The main focus of this clean-up is in IO area. And I also cleaned java/lang/ProcessImpl_md.c and java/util/TimeZone_md.c in this transaction.

Thanks,

-Dan
