These StringBuffer woes remember of an old request we made to this list... The last time I checked driver's sources,
allacess to preparedstatement's stringbuffer are synchronized... this isn't necessary as jre's Stringbuffer already has
allof its methods synchronized. 
  The driver is still doing that? Just curious.

Yes, but to be threadsafe with a shared buffer you do need to synchronize as
the driver does a series of operations to accumulate a string that need to
be atomic. Synchronizing on each individual operation isn't enough.

That said, it's pretty silly to write code that depends on a Statement being
threadsafe :)

Good point, although the doubling of the Buffer pool is irrelevant in
those cases.  Any difference is only measurable in the hundreds of K sizes.

Anyway, it will not hurt adding 2.

  Am I wrong or the jdbc spec say they should be thread-safe?

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,
--Barry

Looking at this case I don't think they are unnecessary. But I would like to just raise some questions for
clarification
 - The JDBC spec doesn't say these objects should be used in a thread-safe way? What I mean: your application/container
shouldn'tuse a single PreparedStatement in multiple threads)... I think I saw this somewhere, but I might be wrong 
 - Maybe the unnecessary synch'ing is the one stringbuffer does internally?

Some databases might not even like sharing a connection between threads (I
know is is true for ODBC implemenations) so best practice would never see
synch'ing to be neccessary. OTOH, synchronization does not cause much of a
performance hit on modern JVMs (according to developer works).
