> We are experiencing a serious performance degradation when trying to
> store/retrieve fields and schemas in hash-based data structures (eg.
> HashMap). Since all fields and schemas are immutable (with the exception of
> RecordSchema allowing deferred setting of Fields) it makes sense to cache the
> hash code on the object instead of recalculating every time the hashCode
> method gets called.
> (Are there other mutable Schema sub-types that I'm not thinking about?)
