WICKET-6774: inline state unpacking to improve performance
> Separate model, behaviors and metadata into separate fields

> Key: WICKET-6774

> Reporter: Thomas Heigl

>
> While investigating performance issues with metadata in WICKET-6771, I
> discovered that significant performance gains can be achieved by separating
> models, behaviors, and metadata into separate fields.
> Currently, all three types of data are stored in a single, untyped field
> {{Component.data}}. The idea is to minimize memory overhead by creating as
> few objects as possible.
> If a model or a single behavior or metadata is added, {{data}} stores only a
> reference to the object. When additional data is added, the reference becomes
> an array.
> This is the most memory-efficient way to store these three types of data. But
> it comes with a cost: code to manipulate that data structure is complex and
> not as efficient because it has to take all possible combinations of data
> into account.
> I suggest introducing 3 separate fields for the 3 types of data, trading a
> little bit of memory for reduced complexity and performance gains.
