This is less expensive than initializing a new string every time. You can get a list all symbols that are already instantiated with the command Symbo...

Add to this mix the fact that some requirements are driven by Spring XD and Grails. Many thanks for your witnessed interest, hopefully you'll have more comparison points in a couple of...
