I did a stupid bench the other day. An empty class with an empty main was regularly slower than one with a println("..."); in it. (arch, openjdk8)

Significantly slower, or is a single println simply under the noise floor?

Erf, it was enough for me to be surprised, like 20%. I trashed the 'code' and I can't reproduce it ~_~;
