So, I filed a Jira bug:
BUGURL: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8236705
WEBREV: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~igerasim/8236705/00/webrev/
If we agree on the content of the fix, I can push it after a sanity build.
With kind regards,
Ivan

Hi Christoph!
First, the same optimization can be done in
src/java.base/share/classes/jdk/internal/module/ModulePath.java:
mainClass = mainClass.replace("/", ".");
Second, I wonder what was the JDK version you ran your benchmark on?
After the fix for JDK-8222955 the method replace(CharSequence,
CharSequence) now detects one-char arguments as a special case.
Thus, I think, more work should actually reduce the difference in
performance between two versions of replace.
Still, I think this optimization is worthwhile. I can sponsor it for
you.
With kind regards,

Hi and a happy new year,
I recently noticed that
jdk.internal.module.Resources.toPackageName(String) makes use of
String.replace(CharSequence, CharSequence) while it could use the
single char variant in my opinion:

if (index == -1 || index == name.length()-1) {
return "";
} else {
- return name.substring(0, index).replace("/", ".");
+ return name.substring(0, index).replace('/', '.');
}
}
I ran an isolated benchmark with some test data on it, which shows
the following results

As you can see the more replacing needs to be done the better the
newer version seems to be perform.
In case this is considered worthwhile I would need someone to sponsor
the patch. If not, I'm sorry for the noise.
Cheers,
Christoph Dreis
