Benchmark results

Benchmark results as of this revision, run on a core i7-4770 CPU. To the greatest extent possible, these results try to extract just the invocation overhead.

Benchmark name	java.lang.reflect.Proxy (ns/op)	DynamicProxy (ns/op)
No-op handler	0.655 ± 0.003	0.262 ± 0.001
Single method, object arg	3.009 ± 0.074	2.379 ± 0.016
Single method, primitive arg	2.631 ± 0.017	2.073 ± 0.032
Single method, pass-through invocation	11.258 ± 0.049	2.030 ± 0.032
Multiple methods, primitive arg	8.078 ± 0.619	2.263 ± 0.142
Construction with state, cached	12.585 ± 0.070	7.074 ± 0.031

'Single method' benchmarks do not perform any conditional checks in the Proxy InvocationHandler; only the multiple methods benchmark does (this one uses a switch statement to dispatch to appropriate logic depending on which interface method is called).
