Github user jsirois commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/thrift/pull/448#issuecomment-183458933 My 2 nonbinding cents: No reasonable client should care about hashCode values, only that the values meet the hashCode contract (this is true of any language). I don't think preserving them should ever be a goal. A second comment, not as helpful since it requires work, is that we should enshrine perf improvements using a tool like [jmh](http://openjdk.java.net/projects/code-tools/jmh/). We use this in [Apache Aurora](https://github.com/apache/aurora/tree/master/src/jmh/java/org/apache/aurora/benchmark) for example to ensure we have a shared history of performance improvements and regressions.
