Hope this helps,

>>  - a DVD obtained through cloneState is independent of other DVDs, but may depend on the state of the Derby store (due to references to store streams)
>>  - the data value will be materialized if the value is represented by a non-cloneable stream or if Derby believes materializing the value is more appropriate than keeping the stream representation
>> cloneHolder <shallow> (~= CloneableObject.cloneObject)
>>  -  a DVD obtained through cloneHolder is dependent on the original DVD and its clones made through cloneHolder. If one of the DVDs changes its state, all of them will be affected. Will also be dependent on the state of the Derby store if there are references to store streams.
>>  - the data value will never be materialized due to cloneHolder being invoked
>> For many of the data types, cloneState and cloneHolder will forward to cloneValue.
>> cloneState will be used the most. cloneValue is currently only required in the sorter. cloneHolder is required (for performance reasons and maybe to avoid OOME) when DVDs pass through temporary holders (BackingStoreHashtable, TemporaryRowHolderImpl). I have not gone through all the usages of cloneState to see if any of them can be, or has to be, replaced with another clone-call.
