In fact, it's more like "no-one has ever been sure enough that FashHashMap has broken their app to file a bug report". If an application misbehaves once in a while, it's almost impossible to determine what the cause was, and therefore no bug report would ever get filed. I think FastHashMap should definitely be deprecated if there is a possibility of intermittent failure.
