   @reuvenlax certainly a valid question and I'm happy to discuss what's worth 
caching. 
   
   Though, the key point here is, that there's already a cache in place for 
array, iterable and map types. Processing for these is currently not ideal. For 
instance, looking at an array field the following steps happen on `getValue`:
   
   1) Invoke getter, the generated byte code wraps the array in a list
   2) Then lazily transform the list elements (`Lists.transform`) and cache the 
result
   
   The problem is really on the 2nd access. Step 1) is repeated, but step 2) 
uses the cache discarding all the work of step 1).
   
   This PR mostly addresses some of the inconsistencies using the existing 
cache and reduces the overhead of the cache by choosing better fitted data 
structures to store cached values.
