public class StringConverter
Converts a String to a String ;).
Well ok, it doesn't actually do any conversion. The converter uses by default a map with weak references to reuse instances of strings that do not exceed a length limit. This limit is by default 38 characters to cache typical strings containing UUIDs. Only shorter strings are typically repeated more often in XML values.
