[CZT-Devel] memory optimisation - comments please...

[Leo F. <leo...@ne...>]

Hi guys,

I think I found another source of some of the retained instances that seem to have weird behaviour.

Term has a List<Object> getAnns() method, which exposes information like LocAnn and TypeAnn and others.
It's called in 1112 places across 17 CZT sub-projects: that exposes the ArrayList / Object[] for retention from those
that use the result or keep it in maps or the like. 

Having said that, I couldn't find a place of misuse in the scattered references that I searched for (e.g., this might 
be just another red herring or a key point for modification/memory-performance-improvement)..... 

thoughts / comments / suggestions ?

Leo
