[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Updated: (JBREFLECT-125) Create bytecode typeinfo implementation

Kabir Khan updated JBREFLECT-125:
---------------------------------

    Description: 
The Javassist implementation does not perform as well as hoped. This mainly seems to be that once anything is accessed in CtClass/ClassFile, everything is eager loaded, which is fine for normal use cases but not for this optimized implementation.

Experiment with an alternative implementation that accesses the raw bytecode, and lazy loading things only when needed. Initially this will be implemented using ASM, and if this yields good results we will push for a similar API in Javassist.
