It's not a good idea to have a hashCode() that allocate objects, at least until escape analysis is implemented in all VMs.

Agree with Joe--these methods don't carry their weight. If the allocation is too much to bear, it's easy enough to write the hash by hand. Plus, it won't have the overhead of a method invocation. ;-)

That's not to say I don't think you should ever do this.
