Sandeep More commented on KNOX-2214:
------------------------------------
[~smolnar] we use google cache elsewhere which is similar to this. The reason
why timed cache were not used are
# There are other implementations that do not use cache i.e. alias
implementation, the idea was to make this implementation reusable by all
implementations.
# Using this would mean refactoring of existing code.
# In-memory cache implementation is not used so there is really not that much
incentive to refactor the code.
