I am aware of two ways to read a .properties file:
1- System.getProperties.load(Inputstream for .properties file);
2- Creating a new Properties object and then calling load(Inputstream for .properties file);
In first approach, are we going to store values of .properties file in the System object. Is it utilizing more resources?
Would like to know which is the best way to do it or apart from above two ways, if there is any other best way, please let me know.
Thanks.

Depends on what the properties file represents. If it represents system properties which needs to override/supply some default system properties, then go for the first approach. But if it represents application-specific properties (which is more often the usual case), then go for the second approach.
