[infinispan-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (ISPN-1284) Use synchronizations as a default transactional mode rather than XA

Use synchronizations as a default transactional mode rather than XA ------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: ISPN-1284 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-1284 Project: Infinispan Issue Type: Feature Request Components: Configuration, Transactions Affects Versions: 5.0.0.CR8 Reporter: Mircea Markus Assignee: Mircea Markus Priority: Blocker Fix For: 5.2.0.Beta1, 5.2.0.Final Transactions are being enlisted as XAResources with recovery disabled by default. XAResource enlistment *without* recovery does not bring any benefit over Synchronization enlistment, which is more efficient(30-40%). See http://infinispan.blogspot.com/2011/06/transactions-enhancements-in-50.html So the suggested enlistment should be Synchronization (default). Also if xa-enlistment is preferred then recovery should be enabled by default - there's little reason in using XAResource enlistment without recovery.
