​面试官疯了：While(true)和For(;;)哪个性能好？

while(true)和for(;;)都是做无限循环的代码，他俩有啥区别呢？

我承认这个问题有点无聊，并且工作中也不会有人刻意的去考虑他们之间的性能差异，也不太会有人在做这个选择之间纠结。

但是，最近竟然有很多面试官开始问这个问题，所以，那就索性理性分析一波。

准备2段代码：

public class HollisTest {


    public static void main(String[] args) {
        for(;;){
            System.out.println("this is hollis testing....");
        }
    }
}

public class HollisTest {
    
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        while (true){
            System.out.println("this is hollis testing....");
        }
    }
}

关于这个问题，网上有很多讨论，说那么多没用，直接反编译，看看字节码有啥区别就行了。

分别将他们编译成class文件：

javac HollisTest.java

然后再通过javap对class文件进行反编译，然后我们就会发现，两个文件内容，一模一样！！！

可以看到，两个用法，其实都是通过goto来干的，所以，这两者其实是没啥区别的。用哪个都行

有人愿意用while(true)因为他更清晰的看出来这里是个无限循环。有人愿意用for(;;)，因为有些IDE对于while(true)会给出警告。至于你，爱用啥用啥！
