System.identityHashCode performance

[Janda Martin]

It was on JDK 1.6.0_u16 client compiler. Persisting about 2 000 "large" entities (~45 attributes) and 200 000 entities (~4 attributes) in one transaction (tuned with: batch writes, cache all statements, batch size = 200, bind all parameters)
Profiler: JProfiler version 4.2.4
  I'm not "JDK" guru so I'm not able to make a patch. I just found that there is used RegisterNatives in Object.hashCode, but not in System.identityHashCode.

  Thank you.

Martin, are you having performance problems with client or server compiler?
