Leon,

Can you publish your TC+HashMap finding you based your comment #55 ?


I've always tried to program for the worst case scenario, assume thread-unsafe
unless otherwise stated.  Probably my 'C' language background thinking here.  So
it interests me to hear this stated in reverse for Java (not a bad thing at
all).  Where within the reference is that implicit thread-safe notion stated ?


Is a HashMap really needed for session attributes, exactly how many attributes
does an average application have set ?  Replacing the collection with a bespoke
TC internal class based on something as silly as a linked list or fixed hash
bucket redirect into linked list should serve most users well.

Then making the exact collection implementation class a configurable item so
those users that would benifit from a safe HashMap for scalabilty of key count
would be happy to fix their performance with a config change.


It would please me greatly to see a more proper collection class for the job
with a safe write operation whilst allowing simultenous mutiple reads.  But
trying to bend the HashMap API into something its not is wrong.
