Your micro-benchmark improvements are significant, but do you have
evidence to suggest that the performance of this method is actually
critical to real applications?
In other words, is the added code complexity really worth it?
The enhancement request contains a few links to the discussions of this
method's performance at open forums.
The most frequent suggestion is to use alternatives from 3rd party
libraries.
That should prove the benefits of this fix -- by improving performance
we can keep some users from moving away from JDK :)
grep shows that langtools would also benefit from making replace() faster.
Sincerely yours,
