Minimize the creation of objects

• If repeating code within a loop, avoid creating new objects for each iteration. Create objects before entering the loop (i.e. outside the loop) and reuse them if possible.
• For complex objects that are used frequently, consider creating a pool of recyclable objects rather than always instantiating new objects. This adds additional burden on the programmer to manage the pool, but in select cases can represent an order of magnitude performance gain.
• Use lazy initialization when you want to distribute the load of creating large amounts of objects.
