Hi, Rana, Brand. Perfomance is not a point. Any final method canot be inlined if it not private (becose we can have different classes in different class loaders), and private method don't required final property. I don't remember source of this discussion, but may be you can write simple test case :)
Brand, please, explain, why do you need to override it?
