Julian Sedding commented on OAK-5253:
-------------------------------------
[~mduerig] I understood it to be the other way around: it's safe to return true
if the blob ids are equal, but it is unsafe to conclude that they are different
if their blob ids are different. In other words: blobs with identical bytes may
have different blob ids.
> Optimize AbstractBlob#equal to not do content equals when possible

>
> AbstractBlob#equals tries to match content when length is equal and content
> identities is not null and different. Matching content triggers an expensive
> download of binaries for S3DataStore.
> Since, right now the content identity is the content hash the check can be
> short -circuited when the content identities is not null and not equal to
> return false.
> This can be revisited if we change the identity to something different.
