Each snapshot is immutable once it is created; the past cannot be changed. + * We handle divergences between the current state and historical state by copying a + * reference to elements that have been deleted or overwritten into the most recent + * snapshot tier. + * + * Note that there are no keys in SnapshottableHashTable, only values. So it more similar + * to a hash set than a hash map. The subclasses implement full-featured maps and sets + * using this class as a building block. + * + * Each snapshot tier contains a size and a hash table. The size reflects the size at + * the time the snapshot was taken. Note that, as an optimization, snapshot tiers will + * be null if they don't contain anything. So for example, if snapshot 20 of Object O Review comment: To be more precise, it's the snapshot tier's hashtable will be null, right? ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
