Re: [keycloak-dev] client query caches getting complicated

There can also be large difference between different vendors. Maybe clients and roles (and groups?) shouldn't be loaded eagerly with realm, but I guess most of the other stuff can be (ie. federation providers, identity providers, SMTP configurations etc). Also for clients we can eagerly load most of the stuff (ie. redirectUris, scopes ). ATM we eagerly preload whole realm in CachedRealm constructor, but we have fetchType.LAZY everywhere. IMO this is not optimal and would mean lot of SQL at startup during realm preload (I did not doublecheck myself).

Marek Another thing in the future we should separate clients out into a separate store. There could be thousands of clients or even more. So they should be treated in a similar fashion to users. Does that have impact on how we improve/refactor/fix caching now?
