You don't mean to get rid of resource pools do you (like connections and
such). I assume not, that is the only use of pools that I would
suggest, especially with HotSpot (but that is only based on the numberuous
times at JavaOne that the HS folks said not to use pools).
The only other case I would use a pool is for very heavy weight objects.
If it makes life easier drop the pool. If it is possible to abstract the
creation of that object to a factory, then if pooling would improve
performace it could be re-enabled (perhaps even on the fly).
