Hello, some more thoughts about parallel content-aggregation. I plan to use content-aggregation for aggregation of external data, caching has to be disabled because of frequent changes in the delivered data. Because the external xml-source is not very fast I expect the performance benefit of a parallel mechanism to be more than same milliseconds.
The ordering of incomming SAX-Events could be handled by the separation of connect-phase and deliver-phase. During connect-phase (connecting to foreign host, waiting till first byte arrives) all threads work parallel, but the deliver-phase (streaming into handlers) is synchronized by a big lock shared between all threads. Thoughts ?
