Using the attached code, on JDK 15, I get completely different results for the @Mecki test case. This basically runs the code in 5 loops, with the first loop a bit shorter to give the VM some time to...

Exception performance in Java and C# leaves much to be desired. As programmers this forces us to live by the rule "exceptions should be caused infrequently", simply for practical performance...

I changed @Mecki 's answer above to have method1 return a boolean and a check in the calling method, as you cannot just replace an Exception with nothing. After two runs, method1 was still either the...

Just compare let's say Integer.parseInt to the following method, which just returns a default value in the case of unparseable data instead of throwing an Exception: public static int...

Don't know if these topics relate, but I once wanted to implement one trick relying on current thread's stack trace: I wanted to discover the name of the method, which triggered the instantiation...

A while back I wrote a class to test the relative performance of converting strings to ints using two approaches: (1) call Integer.parseInt() and catch the exception, or (2) match the string with a...

It depends how exceptions are implemented. The simplest way is using setjmp and longjmp. That means all registers of the CPU are written to the stack (which already takes some time) and possibly some...

I've done some performance testing with JVM 1.5 and using exceptions was at least 2x slower. On average: Execution time on a trivially small method more than tripled (3x) with exceptions. A trivially...

HotSpot is quite capable of removing exception code for system generated exceptions, so long as it is all inlined. However, explicitly created exception and those otherwise not removed spend a lot of...
