Yes, I want to check in the latest optimized Entities class. I think I can do that today.
I agree with Hen's analysis below about allowing yuckiness for the sake of optimization. I'll make it clear that IntHashMap is not a lang API class either, but a private implementation class. - A > > > Should we consider: > > > > > > (1) IntHashMap as a non-public member of [lang] > > > > > > In for 2.0, or defer to discuss (2)? > > > > This was for Entities.java optimisation?
