[armedbear-devel] It it worth cacheing jmethod and jclass calls?

I do:

(let ((meth (jmethod "java.lang...." "javaMethodName" "arg-type")) (cls (jclass "java.lang....."))) (defun lisp-fun (arg) (jcall meth cls arg)))

Rather than:

(defun lisp-fun (arg) (jcall (jmethod "java.lang...." "javaMethodName" "arg-type") (jclass "java.lang.....") arg))

In order to cache the jmethod and jclass calls. I read in another post that this had no value because (essentially) this is what the compiler is doing anyway. Is this true? Does it make any difference which way I do it in terms of speed?

Thanks.
