Motivation: The IntObjectHashMap benchmarks show the Agrona collections to be faster on put, lookup, and remove. One major difference is that we're using 2 modulus operations each time we increment the position index while iterating. Agrona uses a mask instead. Modifications: Modified the KObjectHashMap to use masking rather than modulus when wrapping the position index. This requires that the capacity be a power of 2. Result: Improved performance of IntObjectHashMap.

How to build
For the detailed information about building and developing Netty, please visit the developer guide. This page only gives very basic information.
You require the following to build Netty:
- Latest stable Oracle JDK 7
- Latest stable Apache Maven
- If you are on Linux, you need additional development packages installed on your system, because you'll build the native transport.
Note that this is build-time requirement. JDK 5 (for 3.x) or 6 (for 4.0+) is enough to run your Netty-based application.
Branches to look
The 'master' branch is where the development of the latest major version lives on. The development of all other versions takes place in each branch whose name is identical to <majorVersion>.<minorVersion>. For example, the development of 3.9 and 4.0 resides in the branch '3.9' and the branch '4.0' respectively.
