> In the stringToDate method in DateTimeUtils.scala, in order to create a
> Calendar instance we create a brand new TimeZone instance every time by
> calling TimeZone.getTimeZone("GMT"). In jdk1.7, however, this method is
> synchronized, thus such an approach can cause significant performance loss.
> Since the same time zone is used each time we call that method, I think we
> should create a val in the DateTimeUtils singleton object to hold that
> TimeZone, and use it every time.
