http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=14522 Performance problem due to unnecessary ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2002-11-13 19:53 ------- This is a question of whether we believe null will be a common or uncommon case. If uncommon, the exception may be lower total cost than applying the if-NULL test every time. And it _SHOULD_ be uncommon, as we should rarely be asking for the DTM belonging to the NULL handle. If you're seeing a significant number of these exceptions thrown, we may want to look at higher-level code to determine why this is happening, and whether a fix should be applied here or in the callers. And we want to be darned careful to _measure_ both the current code and the fix; as I remember it, I switched to the current version after such a measurement suggested that it was a net gain.
