[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (WFLY-4257) EJB: Modify service granularity

EJB: Modify service granularity ------------------------------- Key: WFLY-4257 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-4257 Project: WildFly Issue Type: Task Components: EE, EJB Reporter: David Lloyd Assignee: Flavia Rainone This actually applies to components in general. The granularity of EJB services is more fine-grained than is necessary. There is essentially a lock-step startup requirement within an application module no matter what, so it doesn't make sense to have services for every EJB; instead there could be one all-EJBs service chain, with aliases to satisfy external dependencies if needed, and that one service chain could internally perform all startup tasks concurrently. This should be much more scalable since the dependency graph of many-EJB deployments currently has a substantial overhead. It may also facilitate simpler embeddability.
