Github user WangTaoTheTonic commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/3709 Ok i think i've got your point. Now using WeakHashMap, we add entries when the map doesn't contain the requested EG id, remove invalid entries when GC happens. By adding `small 2-line branch` as you suggest, we add entries as same way as before, but check if a entry is valid when it's accessed by a handler, and update/remove it if it's invalid. Is it right?
