I'm looking at Space4j as an alternative for in memory persistence of limited amounts of object bindings only relevant in runtime.
After looking through the examples I have decided that it might suit my needs, but I have a few questions:

1. It seems that if I get a NotSerializableException once when trying to save something, the only way I have found to get past this point, even if I set the field to transient, is to clear the log files. Is this true?

2. Have you thought about implementing generics? Since you are using the Collections framework, I think some work could be done to simplify things. I have started to write a framework on top of the core classes to make it more robust, but since all get methods just return objects i'm constantly adding my own layer with generics support

3. How well tested is Space4j? Is it in production anywhere?

2. Any help implementing a generics layer will be highly appreciated. Generics is good stuff and Space4J should take advantage of it. Let me know if you want to commit something to the project about that.

3. Not that I know of. But the stress test should be a good indication that it is reliable under heavy load. Of course it can have hidden bugs, but a bug does not exist until it introduces itself in a real-case scenario.
