Hi, I am working on a server project, which requires thousands records of data stored in memory, and they will be accessed by thousands of threads simultaneously. I intend to use datalog to store all my data, sharing the whole database by a reference. However, I am afraid of concurrency of this design, say if one thread changed any piece of the data, the whole data structure must be protected by dosync, and if another thread try to update it at the same time (by alter), it may cause retries, and because there are many many threads, the retries may happen too often. Another approach is just like in Java, we store each record as a ref, then we can dosync a single record. It seems like a row level lock rather than a database level lock in my opinion. Is this correct? However, this design seems too Java-like and we can not use datalog to do that.
Which approach is better? Or is there better design? Thanks for your opinion. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
