I've seen a lot of use of final for local primitives. Presumable to indicate to the compiler that the value shouldn't be changed.
However, what's the implication of this on Dalvik? I believe final local variables are usually placed on the heap for extended lifetime (for use in inner classes), so is their a runtime overhead rather than using simple locals (which use Dalvik registers)?
