 * A OperationRuntimeDescription object contains immutable data that is needed during the runtime
 * (i.e. to cache marshal and demarshal information).  The OperationRuntimeDescription object must
 * be immutable so that it can safely accessed by multiple theads without synchronization.
 * 
 * It cannot be used to store information that may not be available in different threads/
 * classloaders (i.e. it cannot have references to Class objects)
 * 
 * The actual OperationRuntimeDescription objects are accessed via the key.
