Re: [infinispan-dev] Notifications for cache entry expired

Hi Manik, The purpose is the usual that the application would want to take some action on expiry of the entry. Ofcourse the application can also start a timer in parallel but those timers may again need to be synced up in case of distributed apps. However, your explanation brings out another question - is there an additional overhead (memory related) using expiry on the cache entries as compared to keeping an active control over the cache entry creation and deletion. An application using only cache entries with expiry.
