Hiroshi Ikeda commented on HBASE-14268:
---------------------------------------

For performance tests in much GC, I multiplied LOOP_COUNT by 10 or 100 and run 
the test application with the VM option -verbose:gc. The new KeyLocker works 
well. The old KeyLocker immediately drops released locks and GC happens 
frequently.

On the other hand, I found that, in the case of locking and releasing new keys 
at all times, the new KeyLocker has less performance. That is because weak 
references may require a several GC, and I think that happens especially when 
there are too many weak references. I'll append later such a test application 
and its result.

> 1. In the implementation of {{KeyLocker}} it uses atomic variables inside a 
> synchronized block, which doesn't make sense. Moreover, logic inside the 
> synchronized block is not trivial so that it makes less performance in heavy 
> multi-threaded environment.
> 2. {{KeyLocker}} gives an instance of {{RentrantLock}} which is already 
> locked, but it doesn't follow the contract of {{ReentrantLock}} because you 
> are not allowed to freely invoke lock/unlock methods under that contract. 
> That introduces a potential risk; Whenever you see a variable of the type 
> {{RentrantLock}}, you should pay attention to what the included instance is 
> coming from.
