Yeah. This is tricky for us since the various VMs differ.
That said, I think we've seen a number of performance fixes go in
during the last year, and for the most part these haven't been
micro-optimizations.
In this particular case, I think RandomAccessFile is not used very
much. I would only bother looking at optimizations in this code if
it showed up in a profile of some application.
