collection batch fetching ------------------------- Key: HHH-1775 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-1775 Project: Hibernate3 Type: Improvement

Components: core Reporter: Steve Ebersole Assignee: Steve Ebersole Priority: Minor Fix For: 3.2.2

I have code local on my box to support "peeking" into the second level cache when determining whether to add a particular entity/collection key to a batch load request. If the given key is contained in the second level cache, then do not batch fetch the entity/collection as it will be initialized from second level cache on access. However, there are still large inefficiencies when performing this for collections; the biggest of which currently is the fact that we retreive a IdentityMap.entrySet for each and ever call to determine a collectiomn fetch batch. For performance reasons, we should align this with how entity batches are handled where the entity keys considered to be "batch loadable" are tracked seperately on the BatchFetchQueue.
