Manik Surtani commented on ISPN-663:
------------------------------------

You are right that eviction from 4.1 onwards doesn't use a background thread since as you said, this is risky.

Perhaps there is a way for the JDBM cache store to internally maintain a count of puts, and flush when this count reaches a number or a certain time slice has passed?

> Eviction with passivation enabled using the JdbmCacheStore appears to be significantly slower in 4.1.0.FINAL vs 4.0.0.FINAL.
> The degredation in performance is so signficant to make it impossible  to use
> The  performance issue seems to due as the JdbmCacheStore synching the filesystem via FileDescriptor.sync() or similar which occurs during every object passivation and each passivation occurs as a new object is added beyond the EvictionMaxEntries capacity.
> The attached test inserts 1000 values into two caches
> Both caches use a JdbmCacheStore and  LRU
> PASSIVATIONLRU10 runs with cache with EvictionMaxEntries  10
> PASSIVATIONLRU1000 runs with cache with EvictionMaxEntries  1000
> 4.1.0.FINAL
> PASSIVATIONLRU10 Time Taken : 51704
> PASSIVATIONLRU1000 Time Taken : 4484
> 4.0.0.FINAL
> PASSIVATIONLRU10 Time Taken : 281
> PASSIVATIONLRU1000 Time Taken : 141
> 4.2.0.ALPHA2
> PASSIVATIONLRU10 Time Taken : 51047
> PASSIVATIONLRU1000 Time Taken : 5156
