Philippe Marschall updated WFLY-12836:
--------------------------------------
Description:
In our application we have the need to know the roles of the current user. We would like
to do this using Java / Jakarta EE APIs rather than rely on WildFly implementation
classes. We do this by iterating over all roles, which we know statically, and calling
{{EJBContext#isCallerInRole}} for each one. This seem to be a common technique, see [How
to get user roles in a JSP /
Servlet|https://stackoverflow.com/questions/344117/how-to-get-user-roles-...].
That's about 100 roles for us. We were expecting that would be a lookup into a
{{HashMap}} or similar with O(1) complexity and almost no allocations.
This however does not seem to be case as {{EJBContextImpl#isCallerInRole}} seems to do the
role mapping for every call. This results in a large amount of allocations. In our case
this completely dominates our allocation profile. See attached screenshot from JFR.
