Introduction
This topic describes a number of "pitfalls" (i.e. mistakes that novice java programmers make) that relate to Java application performance.
Remarks
This topic describes some "micro" Java coding practices that are inefficient. In most cases, the inefficiencies are relatively small, but it is still worth avoiding them is possible.
