[jbosscache-dev] InitialStateRetrievalTimeout

[Vladimir Blagojevic]

Hey guys,

In case you missed the discussion on the forum, [1] one developer 
complained that he was getting CacheException with streaming state 
transfer if the state was too big. It turns out that the problem was 
related to the timeout for channel.getState that we were passing to 
jgroups - we used lockAcquisitionTimeout + 5sec. Related issue is [2].

Brian pointed out that we indeed have initialStateRetrievalTimeout 
configuration parameter that is meant to be used for these purposes.  
While discussing this issue with Brian we concluded that we should maybe 
rename this configuration parameter to stateRetrievalTimeout since we 
have to use some parameter for partial state transfers as well.

Thoughts?
