It's an error in our implementation (and the RI!) to assume that an application requesting the canonical path two times wants to receive the same result. If the application wants the same value, why doesn't the *application* cache the result?! If we want to make Harmony faster, there are better ways to do so. The simpler optimization is to streamline the code that looks up the canonical path *the first time*. Reducing the number of times we cross a JNI boundary is one of many opportunities here. What's the reason of bad implement? Anyone knows? > The canonical path cache code we shipped with Android 2.0 occasionally caused applications to crash with a NoSuchElementException.
