Re: patch: tiny patch to correct stringbuffer size estimate

Felipe,

Why do you think the synchronizations are unnecessary?

Consider the following code:

    synchronized (sbuf)
    {
        sbuf.setLength(0);
        sbuf.ensureCapacity(x.length() + (int)(x.length() / 10));
        sbuf.append('\'');
        escapeString(x, sbuf);
        sbuf.append('\'');
        bind(parameterIndex, sbuf.toString(), type);
    }

If two thread where to perform this code at the same time using the same
sbuf the results would be garbage even if the methods on sbuf are all
syncronized.  It is the set of actions on sbuf here that needs to be
syncronized, not each individual call.  I beleive all the uses of
synchronization in the driver are of a similar usage pattern.

thanks,
