[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (JGRP-1354) Compress views

Compress views -------------- Key: JGRP-1354 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JGRP-1354 Project: JGroups Issue Type: Enhancement Reporter: Bela Ban Assignee: Bela Ban Fix For: 3.3 In clusters with many members, a View can be large. See if we can compress views. Possible strategies: - Canonicalization of addresses (replace UUIDs with shorts) see different JIRA) - Compress digests (see different JIRA) - Keep a list of ViewIds and Views and only send the ViewIds (not for JoinRsp !) - Create a DiffView: send the previous ViewId V1, the new ViewId V2, and the diff between V1 and V2, for example - V34=V33 + N1 + N2 - V34=V33 - N30 - N13 + N3 (2 nodes left, 1 node joined) - The receiver can then construct a full view from V34, V33 and the diffs
