+/**
+ * Fixed-size Array-based, Lock-Free Interner.
+ *
+ * !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! READ THE PARAGRAPH BELOW BEFORE USING THIS CLASS 
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
+ * This class is technically not thread-safe. Therefore if it's called from 
multiple
+ * threads, it should either be used with proper synchronization (in the same 
way as
+ * you would use e.g. a HashMap), or under the following conditions:
+ * all the objects being interned are not just immutable, but also final (that 
is, all
+ * their fields used in equals() and hashCode() methods are explicitly marked 
final).
+ * That's to ensure that all threads always see the same contents of these 
objects. If
+ * this rule is not followed, using this class from multiple threads may lead 
to strange
+ * non-deterministic errors. Note that objects with all private fields that 
are not
+ * marked final, or immutable collections created via 
Collection.unmodifiableMap() etc,
+ * don't qualify.
+ * 
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
+ *
+ * This interner is intended to be used when either:
+ * (a) distribution of values among the objects to be interned make them not 
suitable
+ *     for standard interners
+ * (b) speed is more important than ultimate memory savings
+ *
+ * Problem (a) occurs when both the total number of objects AND the number of 
unique
+ * values is large. For example, there are 1M strings that look like "a", "a", 
"b", "b",
+ * "c", "c", ... - that is, for each unique value there are only two separate 
objects.
+ * Another problematic case is when "a" has 1000 copies, "b" has 900 copies, 
etc.,
+ * but in the last few hundred thousand objects each one is unique. In both 
cases, if
+ * we use a standard interner such as a Guava interner or a ConcurrentHashMap 
to
+ * deduplicate such objects, the amount of memory consumed by the interner 
itself to
+ * store objects that have few or no duplicates, can be comparable, or even 
exceed, the
+ * savings achieved by getting rid of duplicate objects.
+ *
+ * This implementation addresses the above problems by interning objects 
"optimistically".
+ * It is a fixed-size, open-hashmap-based object cache. When there is a cache 
miss,
+ * a cached object in the given slot is always replaced with a new object. 
There is
+ * no locking and no synchronization, and thus, no associated overhead. In 
essence,
+ * this cache is based on the idea that an object with value X, that has many 
copies,
+ * has a higher chance of staying in the cache for long enough to guarantee 
several
+ * cache hits for itself before a miss evicts it and replaces it with an 
object with
+ * a different value Y.
+ *
+ * This interner has a minimum possible memory footprint. You should be 
careful when

Review Comment:
   So what was the capacity we used in tests to validate the production use 
case memory footprint reduction from 13Gb to 1GB ? Based on the gain, looks 
like we were able to optimize away all the duplicates effectively ?
