FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
java version "1.6.0-rc"

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
Stack should be replaced with ArrayDeque where it appropiate. It offers more flexibility in the interface and its methods are unsynchronized which should provied improved performance. Ive identified these classes as potential users of Stack:

they should be audited and have their Stacks replaced with ArrayDeques.
