> Our project loads and unloads a lot of bundles over time, and we have noticed that the JVM quickly spends the majority of its time collecting its garbage.
> We have identified the Framework Security extension as one source of this problem. Specifically, the suspiciously large number of `Conditions` and `Permissions` objects in every heap dump.
> The `Permissions` objects are _definitely_ being leaking because `Permission.Entry.hashCode()` should use `Arrays.hashCode(entry)` instead of `entry.hashCode()` when `entry` is an array.
> I have also reimplemented `Conditions` to listen for `BundleEvent.UNINSTALLED` instead of relying on multiple `WeakHashMap`s. This is consistent with a TODO comment for this class, and allows the `Conditions` obejcts to be deleted _immediately_ instead of waiting for the garbage collector to realise that they are no longer referenced.
