No. The only case where it _could_ play a role is running Jackrabbit fully in-memory. > when you type "new ArrayList<String>()" in any decent IDE For me this is about reading. Not writing. > If you type "List<String> myList = " Not that it would matter, but I also need to type " new " + [Ctrl+Space] (I use Eclipse). So "New." is the exact same number of keystrokes. > New.hashMap() is less readable ... looks weird. I agree. Maps.newHashMap() may be better. Anyway, let's use the verbose style for now.
