> I'd like to suggest performance improvement for String class. Attached patch is very simple and covers the following issues:
> - Additional check in String.equals(). It returns true in case if we compare the same strings. 
> - Deleted temporary variable sum in String.hashCode() 
> - Added workaround for charset ISO-8859-1 in String.getBytes() to avoid usage of java.nio 
> I've execute DaCapo benchmark with the fix gives about 7% boost for Dacapo:fop bench and don't degradate on other benchmarks. Values are in milliseconds:
> Build 	        Dacapo:fop Dacapo:hsqldb Dacapo:xalan Dacapo:chart
> drlvm-original  1287.076   12706.837     1933.424     16283.142
> drlvm-fixed 	1186.912   12471.263     1914.366     15961.693
