             Summary: reduce memory footprint of BeanMeta
                 Key: BVAL-154
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BVAL-154
             Project: BVal
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: jsr303
    Affects Versions: 1.1.2
            Reporter: Mark Struberg
            Assignee: Mark Struberg
             Fix For: 1.1.3, 2.0.0


While doing some performance analysis on a project I figured that we store way 
too many BeanMeta instances. 
This seems to come from other frameworks checking whether a class has 
BeanValidation features on them. 
It also happens within our own CDI BValExtension. 
The result is that we also cache the BeanMeta for every class which gets 
queried, regardless whether it has some validation on them or not.

We should introduce a 'negative cache' which contains classes which are known 
to have no validation on them

{code:java}
getConstraintForClass(Calss c) {
  if (negativeCache.contains(c)) 
    return new EmptyBeanDescription(c);
  ...
  if (noValidationFeatureFound)
    negativeCache.add(c);

}
{code}
