There's now a Martin-style benchmark at http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~martin/webrevs/jdk/URLMicroBenchmark/ that suggests the code is ~ 25% faster with default JVM flags (C2) but ~ 25% slower with C1, as you might expect with multiple String concatenation. I think we want to optimize for the default and assume that multiple String concatenation does in fact get optimized. I'm not planning to check in the benchmark code.
