[infinispan-dev] How the remote fetching for GET works in DIST mode

Maybe this is an ancient topic discussed, ages ago somewhere, but if there's a quick answer, please save me from searching through tons of archives. Let's have a DIST mode cache. When we're doing a memcached/REST tests where for each request there's cca numOwners/numNodes probability that we'll hit the owner, in numNodes=4, numOwners=2 this means cca every second request needs a remote fetch (assume no L1 cache) I'm just looking at the DistributionManagerImpl.retrieveFromRemoteSource and trying understand how it works. Does it really cause 2 more GET request processing in the cluster ? OK even when we're assuming serving a GET request should be quick, I'd like to see how it would perform if we only allowed getting from the first owner. I guess right now we don't allow configuring this. Are there any catches with this ? m. -- Michal Linhard Quality Assurance Engineer JBoss Datagrid Red Hat Czech s.r.o.
