Thanks for looking at the code.

(It rehashes only once after resolving all references)

Interesting idea. I have to think about that approach.

Now, Object>>#stonProcessSubObjects: is very general and looks at named and 
indexed instance variables. But this probably could be replaced by something 
more high level and specific I guess.

Adding and removing each key/value has a cost too. I try to make the simplest 
case very efficient and only pay a price when really needed. Anyway, time for 
some calculations.

Thanks again for the suggestion !

Sven
