Description

According to Sun Bug ID 6810437, URL equals and hashcode methods perform DNS lookup, the bug is closed, the suggested fix is to use URI or the string representation of instead of URL in collections.

URL's documentation also suggests creating a URI, then calling toURL() to obtain a URL, rather than constructing a URL directly.
