             Summary: JdbcStringBasedStore Purge should not use FOR UPDATE to avoid excessive locking
                 Key: ISPN-11110
                 URL: https://issues.redhat.com/browse/ISPN-11110
             Project: Infinispan
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Loaders and Stores
    Affects Versions: 10.1.0.CR1
            Reporter: Ryan Emerson
            Assignee: Ryan Emerson
             Fix For: 11.0.0.Final


https://issues.redhat.com/browse/ISPN-10337 Added the FOR UPDATE to the select query used by the purge method in order to ensure that the purge method would lock all of the affected rows so that no subsequent updates to a key could be incorrectly removed by the purge method.

However, if the purge does a select for update and does a single commit at the end of the purge, that will block write operations on all the expired keys for the entire duration of the purge. The clustered purge listener does cache.removeLifespanExpired(key, null, null).join(), so the entire duration of the purge could mean a really long time.

Instead we should utilise a normal select query followed by a 'delete from table where id = ? and timestamp = ?' to prevent accidentally deleting an update.
