Hi Sherman,

I'd like you to do a code review.

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~martin/webrevs/openjdk7/Formatter.parse/

Synopsis: Optimize Formatter.parse (including String.printf)
Description:
Formatter is not as efficient as it could be.
Here's a low-hanging fruit optimization
that creates fewer objects,
and uses the idiom

return al.toArray(new FormatString[al.size()]);

I'm sure additional optimizations are possible.

Results: about 10-20% faster on in-house microbenchmarks of
String.printf

Martin
