Hi,

I am creating a caching layer for my application. What I am planning to do is use a method arguments wrapped as an object, implement hashCode and equals for it and use this object as a key to the data i am going to store in the cache.

What I am not sure is that does having this type of object as a key to a cache entry affects the performance of the cache ?

Example Code :

// pseudocode
class MyParamWrapper
{
 String arg1;
 int arg2;
 boolean arg3;
 ....

 // Implemented hashCode and equals ....
}
