Looking at some discussions the open-jdk team had, they decided to continue with Separate Chaining. I don't have the link, but then I got interested to see how some Open Addressing (nothing fancy) will behave in Java, so this is the reason I've written this "article".
Unfortunately I coudln't beat HashMap with the "classic" approach, but I got close. I am curious to see a better implementation that brings more engineering tricks on the table.
