Description

« Hide

You could have some # (like 5000) objects in the hard referenced cache. When it fills up, overflown entries could be placed in a weak hash map, so they can be gc'd when the app needs more heap space.

I think there should be some kind of configuration for this feature that allows to choose between weak or soft references, instead of just using weak references.
