Re: [jboss-dev] Improving scanning performance
Is there any way that we could persistently cache the results of
scanning for annotations?
Why would you want to cache something like this in the first place?
You actually never explained this. ;-)
Putting aside the issue of how to invalidate
the cache (lets discuss that after), where would the caching logic need
to go (maybe near the code dealing with jboss-scanning.xml?)
Dunno, as I'm still not convinced this is something we should do.
Instead of any caching, I could see some easy-to-do predetermined
annotation info (X).
That would be far more efficient and easy to do, than "proper" caching.
Are there currently any plans to do persistent caching in the MC (or
some form of pre-compiling)?
No.
Pre-compiling?
I guess we could hack some tool that would know how to do (X).
Tattletale looks perfect for such things. ;-)
