             Summary: Get rid of Traverser species and TraverserRequirements
                 Key: TINKERPOP3-1014
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP3-1014
             Project: TinkerPop 3
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: process
    Affects Versions: 3.1.0-incubating
            Reporter: Marko A. Rodriguez


I think I fell victim to premature optimization. We should not have this 
hierarchy of {{Traverser}} species. The problem -- its not a hierarchy, its 
hard to maintain, and the optimization gained is trivial -- at best 3 64-bit 
references.

Moreover, we can then get rid of the notion of {{TraverserRequirement}} and 
thus, speed up the {{Traversal}} compilation. [~twilmes] You noted that 
gathering {{TraverserRequirements}} was a good chunk of compilation time, right?

As such, we should just have {{DefaultTraverser}} and it has everything we need 
where if paths are not used then {{this.path = null}}. Thus, you only suffer 
the 64-bit reference.
