Craig Russell commented on OPENJPA-141:
---------------------------------------

Abe opined:
1. Each BrokerFactory has a ManagedRuntime. You can have multiple 
BrokerFactories, each of which is supposed to be completely independent. 
Therefore you can have multiple ManagedRuntimes, each of which is supposed to 
be completely independent. Caching the TM in a static in JNDIManagedRuntime 
breaks that. 

Craig thinks: +1. There is no reason to optimize the number of lookups of the 
ManagedRuntime, since it's only done once per EMF creation. I agree that making 
the reference static goes too far. 

2. I still don't understand how the caches were working at all with the weak 
refs, unless GC just wasn't kicking in very often. Any info on this? 

Craig thinks: Weak references are supposed to be cleaned up if the referenced 
instance is not otherwise referenced. What would cause the referred classes to 
be garbage collected immediately? I don't quite understand the issue here.

But this might beg the real issue, which is what to use as the key for the Map 
if you want to effectively use the Class as the key but the hashCode and equals 
methods are just too slow. It might be well to look more closely at 
IdentityHashMap, in particular to see if there exists a 
ConcurrentIdentityHashMap or if we can create one. The IdentityHashMap uses 
System.identityHashCode(Object) instead of the overridden hashCode and == 
instead of equals. Even with Class instances as keys, this kind of Map should 
perform well.

I also don't understand all the logic when caching the assignableTo info. 
> + if (isAssignable) { 
> + assignableTo.put(to, new Object()); 
Seems like you would want to cache all instances of To and From, whether or not 
the answer is True. Once anyone asks if two types are assignable, and you find 
out the answer, why not cache the answer? From the code, it looks like you only 
cache True results. What if you change the above code to:
Boolean isAssignableResult = Boolean.valueOf(isAssignable);
assignableTo.put(to, isAssignableResult);
