             Summary: implement a spliterator like interface for parallel traversal of local and replicated cache
                 Key: ISPN-3162
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-3162
             Project: Infinispan
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: Core API, Distributed Execution and Map/Reduce, Loaders and Stores
    Affects Versions: 5.3.0.CR1
            Reporter: Mathieu Lachance
            Assignee: Mircea Markus


The backport of ConcurrentHashMapV8 comes with an interesting interface, Spliterator and it's 3 implementations, Key/Value/EntryIterator. 

As java 7 is now being more widely adopted, it could be interesting to offer to take advantage of the java ForkJoinPool for the parallel traversal of local and replicated caches where the Infinispan map reduce framework is maybe less suited for.

At term, it could be used to speed up the search in a cache without the need to index it.
