Using a `ThreadLocal` has overheads though, and the overhead got a bit worse after JDK-8258596 which addresses a leak by adding a `SoftReference`.

> Most variants improve. There's a small added overhead in `String charsetName` variants for some charsets such as `ISO-8859-6` that benefited slightly from the `StringDecoder` cache due avoiding a lookup, but most variants are not helped by this cache and instead see a significant gain from skipping that step. `Charset` variants don't need a lookup and improve across the board.

The constructor is getting big. Might be better to keep the original private methods (decodeASCII/Latin1/UTF8) for readability.
