> The current implementation of FileCacheStore creates one bucket and lock for each hash key - which results in up to 4.2 billion files (2^32).
> It should limit the number of files to
> a) improve performance of purge
> b) reduce number of open file handles (system resources)
> c) reduce number of Java objects/heap (JVM resources)
> d) improve performance
> The implementation allows us to do so.
> Only 4 lines of code are necessary in BucketBasedCacheStore implementation:
> {code}
>    private int hashKeyMask = 0xfffffc00; // TODO should get a configuration entry
>    @Override
>    protected Integer getLockFromKey(Object key) {
>       return Integer.valueOf(key.hashCode() & hashKeyMask);
>    }
> {code}
> This reduces the number of files to 2^22 = 4,194,304 files. Since each application and each cache store has different semantics the hasKeyMask value should be configurable - best would be to configure the number of bits.
> Side effect: If someone changes the FileCacheStore hasKeyMask, the whole cache store becomes unuseable. So I opened another enhancement ...
> Note: This implementation should be used in a different class (e.g. extend FileCacheStore) because it makes existing file cache stores unusable.
