Reduce number of files generated by FileCacheStore
--------------------------------------------------
Key: ISPN-1300
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-1300
Project: Infinispan
Issue Type: Enhancement
Reporter: Robert Stupp
Assignee: Manik Surtani
The current implementation of FileCacheStore creates one file for each hash key - which
results in up to 4.2 billion files (2^32).
It should limit the number of files to
a) improve performance of purge
b) reduce number of open file handles (system resources)
c) reduce number of Java objects/heap (JVM resources)
d) improve performance
The implementation allows us to do so.
Only 4 lines of code are necessary in FileCacheStore implementation:
private int hashKeyMask = 0xfffffc00; // TODO should get a configuration entry
@Override
protected Integer getLockFromKey(Object key) {
return Integer.valueOf(key.hashCode() & hashKeyMask);
}
This reduces the number of files to 2^22 = 4,194,304 files. Since each application and
each cache store has different semantics the hasKeyMask value should be configurable -
best would be to configure the number of bits.
Side effect: If someone changes the FileCacheStore hasKeyMask, the whole cache store
becomes unuseable. So I opened another enhancement ...
