Re: [rules-users] addKnowledgePackages Delay

It may look something like this: Map knowledgeBaseCacheMap = new HashMap(); this.knowledgeBase = knowledgeBaseCacheMap.get("<SOME_IDENTIFIER>"); if(this.knowledgeBase == null){ this.knowledgeBase.addKnowledgePackages(packages); knowledgeBaseCacheMap.put("<SOME_IDENTIFIER>", this.knowledgeBase) } By doing this the packages get added to the knowledgeBase only for the first time. From second request onwards you get the same knowledgeBase each time without the need for adding the packages again. But this is valid only if you are not changing your rules. If your rules are changing from time to time, you may have to look at caching at more lower levels. I am not sure whether this can be helpful in your case but this is often helpful. Regards, Rajnikant Gupta http://rkthinks.wordpress.com/ 2010/5/3 Moe Alkhafaji <moe.alkhafaji(a)medcpu.com&gt; Thanks for the reply. But I don't understand what you mean by caching the KnowledgeBase. This is about adding a pre compiled KnowledgePackage to a KnowledgeBase. So, how does caching a KnowledgeBase makes addition of new KnowledgePackage faster? Please excuse my ignorance if I am not catching what you are suggesting. Maybe a couple of lines of code to demonstrate your suggestion would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
