MessageBatch: removal on iteration is inefficient ------------------------------------------------- Key: JGRP-2445 URL: https://issues.redhat.com/browse/JGRP-2445 Project: JGroups Issue Type: Enhancement Reporter: Bela Ban Assignee: Bela Ban Priority: Major Fix For: 5.0, 4.2.0 We oftentimes have iteration through a MessageBatch and removal, e.g. {code:java} for(Message msg: batch) { if(condition) batch.remove(msg); } } {code} This is inefficient for large batches, as {{MessageBatch.remove()}} iterates through the batch until it finds the message to be nulled. It is more efficient to use {{BatchIterator.remove()}}. Also include a {{BatchIterator.replace()}} method. Pedro's code: [1] https://github.com/pruivo/JGroups/tree/t_msg_batch_iterator
