Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-2834:
--------------------------------------
Would this return a new Entry per key/value pair? Would these each contain new
key/value instances? The existing API encourages object reuse, which can
provide substantial performance improvements. Do we want to encourage
developers to develop suboptimal code?
