Galder Zamarreño commented on ISPN-293:
---------------------------------------

>From IRC yesterday:
{code}
4:57:13 PM galderz: so the idea would be for a getAll() which underneath would fire concurrent N calls I suppose?
4:57:28 PM galderz: that sounds like the most sensible thing
4:58:23 PM galderz: manik: updated pull req
4:59:39 PM manik: galderz: no, the idea is for a getAsync() which returns a future.
4:59:40 PM emmanuel: galderz: the problem with getAll is that we need to wait for the data to come back, where as with future, we can go ahead with our algorithm and ask for keys on the fly and pile up the futures
5:00:10 PM manik: galderz: getAllAsync() could also be implemented as syntactic sugar over multiple calls to getAsync()
5:00:23 PM galderz: indeed
5:00:23 PM manik: but IMO I'd prefer that we don't add getAllAsync() to the API
5:01:20 PM galderz: ok, we can discuss this further tomorrow AM
{code}

> Like other async methods existing it would be useful (natural) to have a method getAsync() for prefetching of data not immediately required.
