The system does nothing special with the contents of .obj, so it what it holds is changing then your code must be modifying it somewhere.
Anyway I wasn't suggesting that you cache the object + contents, but just the object that you fill in with its contents each time you send it. Though honestly, if you are allocating at least one other object (such as a String) to send the message, I don't know that I would worry much about also allocating the container object.
