Alexandre Russel commented on JBCACHE-1011:
-------------------------------------------
do you have any info on: "Java5 java offers support for determining the size of
objects"
AFAIK, java 5 only allows to know memory usage and send notification when a threshold is
exceeded
on pools that supports it.
Calculating memory usage before and after object allocation would give a wrong size of
objects and
would be unusable in J2EE. Especially because if I put a List in the cache and add object
to the list I
would need to know the total size of list + objects, so I need to trace each object
allocation.
I think this issue should closed as long as knowing the size of objects is not accurate.

Key: JBCACHE-1011
URL:
http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBCACHE-1011
Project: JBoss Cache
Issue Type: Feature Request
Security Level: Public(Everyone can see)
Components: Eviction
Reporter: Mircea Markus
Assigned To: Mircea Markus
Fix For: 2.1.0.GA
As with Java5 java offers support for determining the size of objects. An memory based
eviction policy can be written for this java version only. The basic idea is to let the
user to specify the amount of memory he wants to use.
