Also, I'd like to know which NIO charset provider is preferred, now that
we have two in CVS. (pure java and iconv-based) They complement
eachother pretty well, iconv being somewhat faster in the actual
conversion, but with more overhead for invocation (=slower on short
strings, faster on long ones).
Not really an answer, but here are some thoughts...
All other things being equal, IMHO pure Java is better than Java+native.
Of course all other things are not equal, in particular the speed
question, but Java vs. native speed is very JVM dependent, so that
detracts from the usefulness of using speed as a generic criterion.
