Filtering is about excluding from the set of entries returned by the server to the client of those filtering keys specified in the request (filter size] [filter key size 1] [filter key 1] [filter key size 2] [filter key 2]...). > A multi get, as I see is about giving a list of keys and returning them. So, why use filtering? We need filtering because of RemoteCacheStore: it needs to implement CacheLoader.loadAllKeys(Set<Object> keysToExclude)

> And what type of filtering would it be? REGEX based filtering?...etc. Are you trying to use filtering as a way for clients to instruct to load all keys for example? Like get(*) ? Just explicit filtering: specify the keys you want to be filtered, an the way you want to filter them (inclusive or exclusive filtering) > > What does it mean that they're inclusive? Only keys that fulfill all filters will be returned? If so, what's the use case for this? it means that only these keys are being returned form the client, if they exist. The use case is adding an RemoteCache.get(Set) method (as stated in the document).

> I'm also worried if this might be complicating the protocol when RCS can simply start a bunch of threads and get all the keys in paralell individually. The only thing that would be really be missing here is how to get the list of all keys stored in the server, for loadAll() calls for example. that should be possible by specifying a "key size = -1" in the request - I've updated the document as that bit was missing.
