> DateUtils.DEFAULT_PATTERNS is not in the same order as the HTTP header spec [1], and uses a SimpleDateFormat.parse() method that creates exceptions. The upshot is that in the common case, extra parsing must happen, and an exception must be created (and its stack must be filled in). This leads to unfortunate additional CPU overhead.
