I have tested this, and the try/catch is empirically faster, since the no-exception case is the common case. Putting in the check means we have to wait until the C2 compiler produces a trace without the branch. But even then, there's always the overhead of a check somewhere to be able to fall back to interpretation if the condition is not correct for the trace. I'm avoiding all of that entirely, making this faster in of the most common case. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
