> The current flow is `parseIPv4Address` → `scanIPv4Address` → `scanByte`. `parseIPv4Address` uses `NumberFormatException` for control flow, so it captures the exception, ignores it, and returns -1. This has been reported by AWS customer to cause low performance. Details: [JDK-8353013](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8353013) & https://github.com/aws/aws-sdk-java-v2/issues/5933

test/jdk/java/net/URI/Test.java line 1809:

> 1807:         testCreate("https://123.example.com").s("https").h("123.example.com").p("").z();
> 1808:         testCreate("https://1234.example.com").s("https").h("1234.example.com").p("").z();
> 1809:         testCreate("https://12345.example.com").s("https").h("12345.example.com").p("").z();

can we add some URIs similar to the offending URI here? Something like: 

https://98765432101.www.example.com/ and "https://9223372036854775808.www.example.com/"
