[bv-dev] TraversableResolver and JPA

[Emmanuel Bernard]

If you can detect that this is not an entity class, then you could cache this information in a bounded cache (weak key). It should help a lot. But I don't think PersistenceUtil has such API and if you use Hibernate specific APIs, you are never guaranteed than you are the only JPA provider in the classpath unless you look for them or the app server tells you. Tricky optimisation.
