Github user vlsi commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/jmeter/pull/221 > like Webdriver, which also uses Guava 19.0 That basically means if newer Webdriver would use Guava 20, that might render "newer webdriver incompatible with older JMeter". That is exactly one of the reasons I'm hesitant to pulling Guava in. Current case when "Guava is not used by JMeter itself" makes it more flexible for the plugins to use whatever version they like (unless the plugins do not clash with each another) > jloisel: String Joiners and Splitters Lots of those has native Java8 classes. I do not say Java 8 makes Guava completely obsolete, however we'd consider each added dependency. > great hashing algorithms like MurMur Note: JMeter needs high-performant algorithms, so instead of Guava's MurMur I would use https://github.com/OpenHFT/Zero-Allocation-Hashing
