[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JGRP-1765?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.... ] Bela Ban commented on JGRP-1765: -------------------------------- To avoid having to deserialize a message or message batch sent by self, only to discard it later, the sender's address should be read first. (We cannot use the sender's physical address, as a multicast to local:7500 would not reveal the sender's local port). E.g if P multicasts 100 messages, the current algorithm works as follows: * The byte buffer representing the 100 messages is received * We parse the messages and create one or more batches * All batches sent from P are discarded (if loopback is true) --> The deserialization and creation of memory to hold the batch was not needed as it was discarded anyway -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. If you think it was sent incorrectly, please contact your JIRA administrators For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
