Preloading a read only index in a cache will never hit the cacheloader ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: ISPN-2932 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-2932 Project: Infinispan Issue Type: Task Components: Lucene Directory Reporter: Sanne Grinovero Assignee: Gustavo Fernandes Fix For: 7.0.0.Beta1 With a warm cache (with no eviction) we should never need to hit the CacheLoader again. Was reported - specifically with DIST on multiple nodes - that occasionall IO is triggered; we should add tests to verify this doesn't happen (or to understand why it should) I'm suspecting demand of null valued entries. mailing list thread: http://lists.jboss.org/pipermail/infinispan-dev/2013-March/012261.html
