String.intern() is designed for constant strings, it's implemented in C/C++ in the hotspot core code, and it has a fixed-size hashmap of around 20K entries and if more than this number of strings are interned, the performance degrades linearly since there are hash collisions and the code has to search down linked lists.

Better sorting should do 2 things:
1) case insensitive
2) aware of numbers in the file names. So File2 comes after File1 (obviously) but before File10

In core libraries like StringBuffer we should prefer the lesser evil of code duplication to the loss of performance. - http://old.nabble.com[..]lder%7D-are-inconsistent-td34479926.html

toString.txt

Nice and simple toString():


  public String toString() {

    return MyClass.class.getSimpleName()

        + new LinkedHashMap() {{

      put("foo", foo);

      put("bar", bar);

      put("tee", tee);

    }};

  }

Results in:

MyClass[foo: fooValue, bar: barValue, tee: teeValue]

length.txt

Surprisingly, String length more complicate than we excepted. A char is not necessarily a complete character, so if you need to know the character length, you need to use codePointCount method

int charLen = myString.length();
int characterLen = myString.codePointCount(0, charLen);

However, if you use UTF-8 encoding, string.length() will work as expected.
