Jörgen Rydenius commented on VELOCITY-731:
------------------------------------------
The site run JDK 1.6.0_14, but a large portion of the objects that toString()
was called upon were not JRE core classes.
Making this configurable is a great solution. Even if the default is
"directive.if.null.tostring = true" as you suggest. Recommending customers an
alternative configuration feels much better than building custom velocity jar
files.
Right now I'm afraid I can not promise that I will be able to contribute a
patch within the next few days.
> Velocity 1.6 performance is degraded by introduced toString() calls

> Key: VELOCITY-731
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VELOCITY-731
> Project: Velocity
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Engine
> Affects Versions: 1.6
> Environment: Apache Velocity 1.6.2
> Reporter: Jörgen Rydenius
>
> As part of VELOCITY-531, r686428 introduced frequent calls to toString() just
> to check if toString() != null. If toString() implementations are slightly
> complex, and very frequently executed, these calls will degrade the site
> performance. Are they at all necessary? What kind of object would use null as
> a return value for toString()? Is it possible to remove these toString()
> calls from the velocity code again?
