According to testing by the specjvm2008::crypto.rsa the one thread performance reduced for less than 1% while the score for the multithread run increased in ~2x. For the 2 socket system with Xeon 8480+ numbers looks as:

Without the 'volatile' the performance improved for ~6% (22293 -> 23638) for the 224 threads run. 
Without the 'static volatile' performance improved ~1.9x (22293 -> 42045). It may be 'transient' instance field.
Scores for the 1 thread runs similar for all 3 modification and fit to run-to-run variation.
