You changed the Writer.write to StringBuffer operations. I'd say
that appending to a StringBuffer is much slower than writing
directly to a BufferedOutputStream. There was a comparison between
static concatenation, concatenation of Strings (variables) during
runtime and appending characters to a StringBuffer. I don't
remember the factor, but it was significant. Afterall RTF-export is
not time critic and runs smooth and maybe the usage of
StringBuffer.append is encouraged (due to incredible speed up in
newer SDKs...whatever)...any comments?
Really? Well, I have to admit, this was a late-night idea :-/
Maybe we could make sure the Writer is wrapped into a BufferedWriter
when creating it in RTFHandler, just to streamline a bit.
I'd drop that static Map anyways. Makes sense if you need the same
constant in a hundred different places, but since all remains private
to that tiny class here, they could as well be hardcoded. Work
directly on the char primitive instead of the Character object as
much as possible. (?)
