Thomas Mueller commented on JCR-1232:
-------------------------------------

> ItemId extends Serializable

Yes, sorry, I forgot that. Also I didn't test the patch yet.
My patch can be combined with Jukkas patch of course - the advantage is the 
improved backward compatibility.

> Merge UUID to NodeId

> The current NodeId class is mostly just a wrapper around UUID, which causes 
> two objects to be instantiated for each node identifier that the system uses. 
> The memory and processing overhead is quite small, but given that there are 
> tons of NodeId instances it would be good to eliminate that overhead.
> There is also lots of code that just converts UUIDs to NodeIds and vice 
> versa. We could simplify such code if we just used NodeId everywhere.
> Also, we might want to open up the possibility of using non-UUID node 
> identifiers at some point in future, so it would make a lot of sense to 
> remove the NodeId.getUUID method and rely directly on NodeId and it's 
> equals(), hashCode(), and toString() methods in many places where we 
> currently use UUIDs.
