I think that deserves a sentence in the javadoc. FYI `parse(Path)` is just a shortcut to read all bytes from a file, like `parse(Files.readAllBytes(path))`. Classfile implementation fetches the byte array very often (constant pool reading, lazy expansion) so keeping the bytes in a in-memory array is better. ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/15706#issuecomment-1802967277
