Infinite loop when creating more than two Distributed Cache nodes ----------------------------------------------------------------- Key: ISPN-3086 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-3086 Project: Infinispan Issue Type: Bug Components: JCache Affects Versions: 5.3.0.Beta1 Reporter: Balazs Zsoldos Assignee: Galder Zamarreño Priority: Critical Labels: cache, distribution Fix For: 6.0.0.Final Attachments: infinispan-three-nodes.zip I created a very simple application based on https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/ISPN/Using+Infinispan+as+a+JCache+p... I changed the code to created distributed caches instead of replicated ones. It works until two nodes but if there are three nodes it starts an infinite loop. *The modified XML contains:* <namedCache name="namedCache"> <clustering mode="dist" /> </namedCache> *The modified java code contains:* CacheManager cacheManager1 = Caching.getCacheManager(new TestClassLoader(tccl), "infinispan-jcache-cluster.xml"); CacheManager cacheManager2 = Caching.getCacheManager(new TestClassLoader(tccl), "infinispan-jcache-cluster.xml"); CacheManager cacheManager3 = Caching.getCacheManager(new TestClassLoader(tccl), "infinispan-jcache-cluster.xml"); *Symptom:* The code waits on the third command while there is an infinite loop on a background thread. I guess the benefit of distribution would come with more than two nodes but I cannot test it due to the problem above. Although I used infinispan via JCache I think this issue is not related to the JCache API but it comes from the infinispan core. *BTW:* Distributed caches seem to me about 30% slower than replicated caches concerning to put and delete functions with two nodes. I guess the benefit would come out between the two topologies with more nodes.
