Hi all,

can someone explain why java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClassInternal has to 
be synchronized? ok, the method is called directly from the VM and I 
assume that this is some kind of performance optimization, which helps 
avoiding getting that lock the old fashioned way. But that method really 
does nothing more than calling loadClass... which then can synchronize 
or not? So is it there to enforce synchronization? Why that?

bye blackdrag
