> The time we spend looking up a user's short name with User#getShortName in hot security code paths is mostly spent in Class#getMethod, ~70%. This is only ~1% of overall CPU time but is the bulk of time spent in AccessController#prePut, for example. 
> Since HBase 1.0 is only going to support Hadoop 2, we can remove the use of reflection and replace with direct calls to UserGroupInformation, or remove the User facade and use UGI directly.
