---------------------------------
Summary: Optimize isNodeType checks
Key: OAK-639
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-639
Project: Jackrabbit Oak
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: core
Reporter: Jukka Zitting
Assignee: Jukka Zitting
Priority: Minor
Especially the security code uses frequent isNodeType() calls to check whether
a particular node is an instance of a given node type.
In general I'd avoid those calls entirely, and rather use a data-driven
approach where a node is of a given type if it simply looks like it.
However, since that's not the case now and since there are also other use cases
for explicit node type checks, it makes sense to optimize the isNodeType()
implementation.
