Well said,
First allocation : 500 is too big
Second Concatenation : it take more time to concatenate string than append
them!
StringBuffer buf = new StringBuffer(124);
buf.append("This is a test under ");
buf.append(System.getProperty("os.arch") );
buf.append(" operating system, version ");
buf.append(System.getProperty("os.version"));
