Re: [infinispan-dev] Benchmarking 2nd level cache providers?

Take in account as well that there're several caches and cache usages involved here: entity, collection, query and timestamps and each has a different usage pattern. Bottom line: I don't think trying to emulate this is worth the effort. What is needed here is a Hibernate/JPA load/perf test environment where the most common Hibernate usage patterns are exercised and then you swap 2nd level cache providers. This is really what counts to the users: how quickly I can persist N entities, how quick I can read N times an entity that I've just persisted, how fast I can execute same query N times...etc, these are the use cases where the cache provider must show off. I haven't heard anything from the HB team wrt to this, so I assume they don't have anything like this. -- Galder Zamarreño Sr. Software Engineer Infinispan, JBoss Cache
