Re: [infinispan-dev] Interesting read on how Redis persists data to disk

I definitely agree we should do that, our current performance on the FS CacheLoader is not very interesting.. ok it has never been a priority, still it shouldn't be hard writing one following these basic principles. As I suggested in London a while ago, we could learn from Lucene as well: uso NIO or MMAP, and the basic rule is to never "change" existing segments but rewrite optimal ones in a new file, then swap them atomically and delete the old one. As antirez states too, that allows you to take good performance even from rotating-platter disks. Actually I'm told that rotating disks can still be faster than SSDs on continual writes/reads, as long as you don't have it change the head position.. for Infinispan that means that ideally it should not perform Cache *load* operations from the same drive.
