Doug Cutting commented on AVRO-607:
-----------------------------------
> In Avro code, a weak concurrent hash map is in high demand.
Might we add a org.apache.avro.util.WeakConcurrentMap<T> class that's a
ConncurrentHashMap<WeakReference<T>>? We already have our own
WeakIdentityHashMap...
> SpecificData.getSchema not thread-safe

> SpecificData.getSchema uses a WeakHashMap to cache schemas, but WeakHashMap
> is not thread-safe, and the method itself is not synchronized. Seems like
> this could lead to the data structure getting corrupted.
