Bernd Eckenfels commented on LANG-1058:
---------------------------------------

Do you mean the possible improvement of skipping one char operation, like:

{code}
    public static String uncapitalize(final String str) {
        int strLen;
        if (str == null || (strLen = str.length()) == 0) {
            return str;
        }

        final char firstChar = str.charAt(0);
        final char newChar = Character.toLowerCase(firstChar);
        if (firstChar == newChar) {
            // already uncapitalized
            return str;
        }

        return new StringBuilder(strLen)
            .append(newChar)
            .append(str.substring(1))
            .toString();
    }
{code}

(I dont think repacing Stringbuilder with ""+"" is a good thing here as we know the target string size and can optimize for it)
