UnicodeEncoder.encode() could be made faster
--------------------------------------------

         Key: MYFACES-263
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-263
     Project: MyFaces
        Type: Improvement
    Versions: 1.0.9 beta    
 Environment: WinXP, Pentium 4, Tomcat 5.5, Java 5
    Reporter: Kevin Roast


I have been running some performance tests against our MyFaces application. I 
noticed the following method could be quicker: 

UnicodeEncoder.encode() 

The HtmlResponseWriterImpl calls this method for all response.write(String) 
calls - so it's used a lot! 

Most of the components we have created for use with MyFaces output some quite 
long strings to this write.out() method, so the declaration:

        StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer(); 

in the method: 

        public static String encode (String string, boolean encodeNewline, 
boolean encodeSubsequentBlanksToNbsp) {…} 

is therefore inefficient. Would is possible for it to be changed create the 
StringBuffer on demand when it meets the first character that requires 
encoding? Or at the very least create a more sensible sized buffer:
StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer(string.length() + 4);
