I'm slightly of topic, anyway IMHO, Strings are dead slow when comparing to ints. This is not because of string math (i.e. comparison, etc.) but because of _new_ and _new_ Strings which takes part in many methods with Strings involved (and almost _every_ String finishes in GC)
So I look at jdk1.4 as a (someway) solver with its nio.* and regex.* stuff LT > > Not too bad if the compared strings don't have the same length.
