Sorry Yann, I'm with Shawn here. A comment wouldn't add anything here since the method is pretty simple. Besides javadocs are for API's so an inline comment would be better, but I don't think it is necessary. Shawn, any references for the ability of JIT's abilities to stack allocate in this context? For me learning, will commit anyway. -- robina
