On the hotspot side, we implemented some caching for frequent calls (JDK-8232207, JDK-8227006), but we didn't do that yet for the Java side since there wasn't any need (so far). If calls are becoming frequent with this it should be reconsidered. So +1 on getting some data on what the perf penalty of this is. ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/3126
