>> _An explicit initialization of a volatile class instance variable, such as private volatile Object = null; or private volatile int scale = 0; is unnecessary since the Java spec automatically initializes objects to null and primitive type short, int, long, float and double to 0 and boolean to false. Explicit initialization of volatile variable to a value the same as the default implicit initialized value results in an unnecessary store and membar operation._
