I see most actions returning empty maps by using either the EMPTY_MAP constant from the AbstractAction base class or creating their own unmodifiable map using Collections.
But in AuthAction, the map is returned via: map = new HashMap(); as does SunRise.createMap() I'm not a Java expert so I just want to be sure that it's not a memory leak. I'm sure it gets garbage collected but isn't it cheaper to return a final static variable (EMPTY_MAP), especially since it happens on every request?
