[hibernate-dev] Deprecating or removing entirely HashtableCacheProvider?

[Sanne Grinovero]

I always try to understand what's the main reason motivating people to
use it. Likely the zero dependencies, "let's just try one" ?

We could bake a very simple implementation based as you say on a
ConcurrentHashMap, and implement a simple eviction is simple. But I'm
afraid that offering such a feature would drive away from proper
implementations, which we should encourage to use.
