读了答案后，我发现没有真正的测试能真正抓住重点。以下是我的观点:

public class ConstTest
{

    private final int         value             = 10;
    private static final int  valueStatic       = 20;
    private final File        valueObject       = new File("");
    private static final File valueObjectStatic = new File("");

    public void printAddresses() {


        System.out.println("final int address " +
                ObjectUtils.identityToString(value));
        System.out.println("final static int address " +
                ObjectUtils.identityToString(valueStatic));
        System.out.println("final file address " + 
                ObjectUtils.identityToString(valueObject));
        System.out.println("final static file address " + 
                ObjectUtils.identityToString(valueObjectStatic));
    }


    public static void main(final String args[]) {


        final ConstTest firstObj = new ConstTest();
        final ConstTest sndObj = new ConstTest();

        firstObj.printAdresses();
        sndObj.printAdresses();
    }

}

第一个对象的结果:

final int address java.lang.Integer@6d9efb05
final static int address java.lang.Integer@60723d7c
final file address java.io.File@6c22c95b
final static file address java.io.File@5fd1acd3

第二个对象的结果:

final int address java.lang.Integer@6d9efb05
final static int address java.lang.Integer@60723d7c
final file address java.io.File@3ea981ca
final static file address java.io.File@5fd1acd3

结论:

正如我认为java使原始类型和其他类型之间的区别。Java中的基本类型总是“缓存”的，对于字符串字面量也是如此(不是新的String对象)，所以静态和非静态成员没有区别。

然而，如果非静态成员不是基元类型的实例，则存在内存复制。

将valueStatic的值更改为10甚至可以更进一步，因为Java将为两个int变量提供相同的地址。

假设类永远不会有多个实例，那么哪个实例占用更多内存:

私有静态最终int ID = 250; 或 private final int ID = 250;

我已经理解，静态将引用类类型，在内存中只有一个副本，而非静态将在每个实例变量的新内存位置。但是在内部，如果我们只是比较同一个类的1个实例(即不会创建多个实例)，那么在1个静态final变量所使用的空间方面是否有任何开销?

对于final，可以在初始化时在运行时分配不同的值。 例如

class Test{
  public final int a;
}

Test t1  = new Test();
t1.a = 10;
Test t2  = new Test();
t2.a = 20; //fixed

因此，每个实例都有不同的字段a值。

对于静态final，所有实例共享相同的值，并且在第一次初始化后不能更改。

class TestStatic{
      public static final int a = 0;
}

TestStatic t1  = new TestStatic();
t1.a = 10; // ERROR, CAN'T BE ALTERED AFTER THE FIRST 
TestStatic t2  = new TestStatic();
t1.a = 20;   // ERROR, CAN'T BE ALTERED AFTER THE FIRST INITIALIZATION.

这是另一个简单的例子来理解静态，静态final, final变量的用法。代码注释有适当的解释。

public class City {

    // base price that is always same for all objects[For all cities].
    private static double iphone_base_price = 10000;

    // this is total price = iphone_base_price+iphone_diff;
    private double iphone_citi_price;

    // extra price added to iphone_base_price. It is constant per city. Every
    // city has its own difference defined,
    private final double iphone_diff;

    private String cityName = "";

    // static final will be accessible everywhere within the class but cant be
    // changed once initialized.
    private static final String countryName = "India";

    public City(String cityName, double iphone_diff) {
        super();
        this.iphone_diff = iphone_diff;
        iphone_citi_price = iphone_base_price + iphone_diff;
        this.cityName = cityName;

    }

    /**
     * get phone price
     * 
     * @return
     */
    private double getPrice() {

        return iphone_citi_price;
    }

    /**
     * Get city name
     * 
     * @return
     */
    private String getCityName() {

        return cityName;
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {

        // 300 is the
        City newyork = new City("Newyork", 300);
        System.out.println(newyork.getPrice() + "  " + newyork.getCityName());

        City california = new City("California", 800);
        System.out.println(california.getPrice() + "  " + california.getCityName());

        // We cant write below statement as a final variable can not be
        // reassigned
        // california.iphone_diff=1000; //************************

        // base price is defined for a class and not per instances.
        // For any number of object creation, static variable's value would be the same
        // for all instances until and unless changed.
        // Also it is accessible anywhere inside a class.
        iphone_base_price = 9000;

        City delhi = new City("delhi", 400);
        System.out.println(delhi.getPrice() + "  " + delhi.getCityName());

        City moscow = new City("delhi", 500);
        System.out.println(moscow.getPrice() + "  " + moscow.getCityName());

        // Here countryName is accessible as it is static but we can not change it as it is final as well. 
        //Something are meant to be accessible with no permission to modify it. 
        //Try un-commenting below statements
        System.out.println(countryName);

        // countryName="INDIA";
        // System.out.println(countryName);

    }

}

由于类中的变量在同一个命令中声明为final和初始化， 绝对没有理由不将其声明为静态，因为无论实例如何，它都具有相同的值。因此，所有实例都可以为一个值共享相同的内存地址，这样就不需要为每个实例创建一个新变量，并通过共享一个公共地址来节省内存，从而节省了处理时间。

如果你使用static，变量的值将在你所有的实例中是相同的，如果在一个实例中改变了，其他实例也会改变。
