Hibernate gets faster...

Overheard this evening on Gavin's site:

My performance tests are showing a really big difference in performance, just from removing the finalizer. For one problematic test, I actually halved the overhead of Hibernate!

I can barely believe this result, but I've been successfully reproducing it for the last two hours.

Time to ditch those finalizers eh?

Remember that he is only talking about an experiment. I think it remains to be seen if it is "safe" to remove the finalizers in this case, given their reason for existence. Of course, this would be incentive to use Hibernate correctly, knowing that if you don't release those connections Hibernate ain't gonna clean up after you....
