Description
With the javolution collection cleaning (OFBIZ-5169,OFBIZ-5781) , we need to realize a second pass to control what instantiation would be better.
For List between LinkedList, ArrayList
Using ArrayList, rather than LinkedList, as a default is a good approach because ArrayList will work better in most situations (in terms of algorithmic runtimes and memory footprints).
However I think it is important to wisely choose ArrayList or LinkedList based on the context, because sometimes a linked list may be a better choice: I am not saying we should do it now and we can tackle this at a later moment, possibly focusing only on list that can be very big and analyzing their usage to see if array or linked list is better; it would be also nice, when we use ArrayList, to see if we can predict the capacity of the list and allocate it at creation: if we can do this we will have a more predictable memory usage and less unpredictable peaks under heavy load (when the array capacity is reached and the array is copied to a new one with double capacity).

For Map between HashMap and LinkedHashMap :
Javolution Map Iterators return items in insertion sequence (HashMap does not), so any code relying on the original insertion order must use a LinkedHashMap.
For Set beetwen HashSet and LinkedHashSet. (OFBIZ-6299)
