My hunch is that the speedup will not be significant. Synchronization costs in modern JVMs are very small when there is no contention. But only measurement can say for sure.
The major problem is not just the synchronization but also the Vector array copy when when the internal object array is exhausted. Looking at the code I expect that this happens often.
As soon as we release I plan on taking some time and playing with this...
