> {{StringSearchModelInterpolator}} abuses {{WeakHashMap}}; the {{Field}} values of {{fieldsByClass}} hold hard references to the {{Class}} keys, making it useless. Thus if you passed any {{Class}} to it, that class and its {{ClassLoader}} and the transitive static graph therefrom would never be collectible.
> Anyway a cache is unnecessary, since {{Class}} does its own caching of fields!
> Also removing the ill-conceived {{fieldIsPrimitiveByClass}} - not a memory leak, but likely unnecessary complication.
> The class is deprecated anyway, but just in case it is used by someone it should be fixed.
