[jbosscache-dev] Re: Anycast
Not the way the RPCDispatcher in JGroups works. I always pass in a
List of buddies, and usually this list would have 1 element (if
n=1). Either way, even if n=3 in a 500 node cluster the multicast is
inefficient.
(moving this to the JBC dev list)

I thought for BR, we do unicast now when there is only one buddy
(the default) and switch to multicast where is more than one?

FYI,
currently, buddy replication generates the *same* amount of traffic
as multicasting to everyone. I created a JIRA issue, anycast, which
when implemented will allow for sending of messages to a subset of
the membership: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JGRP-338
