for String based replaceAll/First() it might be worth doing something like

Hi Sherman,
Thanks for clarifying. Looks like exceptions are caused by invalid
format string. I wouldn't expect most programs to be catching this and
preserving their buffer, but dunno.
How much does it affect perf? Well it depends on use case, a jmh of
replaceAll with a length 200 string of digits and regex "(\w)" shows
about 30% speedup.

Hi Isaac,
I actually meant to say "we are not supposed to output the partial text into
the output buffer in case of an exception". It has nothing to do with the
changeset you cited. This has been the behavior since day one/JDK1.4,
though it is not specified explicitly in the API doc. The newly added
StringBuilder variant simply follows this behavior. If it's really desired
it
is kinda doable to save that StringBuilder without the "incompatible"
behavior
change but just wonder if it is really worth the effort.
Thanks,
Sherman

Perhaps. Though the behavior under exception is undefined and this
function is probably primarily used though the replaceAll API, which
wouldn’t return the intermediate sb under the case of exception.
My reading of the blame was the temp StringBuilder was an artifact of
the api previously using StringBuffer externally. See
