Ben Cotton commented on ISPN-871:
---------------------------------


Hi, Please be advised that on Sep 18/19 all of Ben Cotton, Peter Lawrey and Dmitry Gordeev will be meeting in NYC to specifically discuss the plan to progress development on https://github.com/Cotton-Ben/infinispan ... we will then pass our findings onto Mircea Markus and Adrian Nistor re: next best steps.  Please forgive our lack of progress on this JIRA ... we are not RedHat employees and are 100% donating our time as commuinity contributors.  That said we are exceedingly excited wmance Opent to adopting the OpenHFT high-performance off-heap capability as an ISPN Cache.  Thanks.

> The {{DataContainer}} interface could be implemented using a off-heap impl in C, using a wrapper around [TBB|http://threadingbuildingblocks.org/]'s concurrent hashmap.
> Cheap and easy way, no memory management needed, at worst case same performance as the Java CHM-like impl of the data container + some JNI overhead.  Potential benefit of large data heaps.
