It would be nice if we could make caching smarter (without sacrificing simplicity of the default case). One thing that has been pending like forever is expiring cache entries. Having per-entity caching policy would also be sweet. So I am all for investigating and prototyping JCS-based cache ... as long as it doesn't add too much extra weight in the default simple case.

On a side note, I think we will be changing cache format from DataRows (that cache DB data) to some kind of object property-based "rows". The new 1.2 stack came very close to that already.

Hello.

I was at a java user group meeting today. A guy talked about jcs and it looked great. I have not used it before, but perhaps it can be used in cayenne as an alternative to the commons LRUMap? Anyone here used jcs for anything?

What I would like to have in cayenne is the option to have less caching on some of the tables.
