If you have a custom 'HashMap', are you extending 'HashMap'?

You would have to avoid that if you are seeking to micromanage the class load.

I am not convinced that you are discussing real pain.

You seem to be claiming a reduction in class load, which if true might be 
useful if it's significant. How much are you saving in class load?

Oh, thank you for that, Mr. Snarky One.

Your points don't address mine, however.

You have yet to quote the statistics I requested.

What is the difference in *your* application?

I haven't lost my bet yet.
