+1. Reviewed the original over the weekend; quite a heroic effort in porting 
and adjusting this to Nashorn. Big kudos for having the perseverance to get 
this done!

Thanks. It wasn't quite as bad as it looks. The worst actually was to port some of the tests using java.lang.reflect.

I uploaded a new webrev with fixed copyright headers (added Oracle GPL

Please review JDK-8010803: Number to String conversion functionality overhaul:

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~hannesw/8010803/

This is a mostly complete port of the V8 double conversion code[1] to Java. It 
includes Bignum-based algorithms for converting doubles to shortest, precision, 
and fixed decimals representation, as well as specialized faster algorithms for 
each of the conversion modes.

The only thing I left out is string to number conversion and support for single 
precision floats, both of which is not needed for Nashorn. I also ported all 
the relevant tests, which includes 100,000 random numbers for each of the 
(shortest|precision|fixed) conversion modes as well as well as unit tests for 
various implementation classes.

With this new dtoa conversion we are fully compatible with all other JS 
implementations. The fast algorithms are also about 5x faster than what we had 
before. The fallback Bignum implementation still roughly provides a 2x speedup.
