[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Issue Comment Edited: (JGRP-1315) Discovery: don't send view back with discovery response

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JGRP-1315?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12620252#comment-12620252 ]

----------------------------------------------------------

For discovery requests triggered by GMS (JOIN), every member returns:
- Its own address (UUID)
- Its logical name
- Its physical address
- The coordinator's address (UUID)

For discovery requests triggered by MERGE2, every member returns:
- *ViewId* (instead of View)

For merge-triggered discovery requests, MERGE2 only checks if ViewIds differ. If they do, a merge is initiated.

--> We do not need to send the entire View, which saves space on large clusters

Further optimization:
- With MERGE2, the coordinator sends its ViewId along with the discovery request. Only members whose ViewId differ, send a discovery response
--> Say we have 3 partitions
--> If we have 100 members, the existing code sends 100 discovery responses, whereas the new code would send 2 responses !

> We send back a View with each discovery response. This is wasteful if we have large clusters.
> SOLUTION: change this to only return the coordinator's address for initial discovery.
> Note: look into only returning the ViewId for merge triggered discovery
