Hi Gerhard, I'm posting this separately under the same heading because it's probably less relevant.
While analysing the store-janitor code I found some strange things in the way Store-janitorImpl.freeMemory() increments the store index. I assume that each successive call to freeMemory() is intended to free an item from the next store, starting again when the last store is reached. If there are 3 stores then the sequence for index should be: 0,1,2,0,1,2,0,1,2,0,1,2,... Is this correct? (three different indexes) When there are 3 stores my debug log reports the following sequence: Index before: -1,0,1,2,3,0,1,2,3,0,1,2,3,0,1,2,....(four different indexes repeat) Freeing at: -1,0,1,2,*,0,1,2,*,0,1,2,*,0,1,2,.... (corrected): 0,0,1,2,0,0,1,2,0,0,1,2,0,0,1,2,....(store 0 is more frequent) Index after: 0,1,2,3,0,1,2,3,0,1,2,3,0,1,2,3,.... '*' is where debug message says "Starting from the beginning" and from the code you can see that it actually does a freeing at 0. if (this.getLogger().isDebugEnabled() == true) { this.getLogger().debug("Starting from the beginning"); } this.resetIndex(); ((Store)this.getStoreList().get(0)).free(); this.setIndex(0); (corrected) is what actually gets freed, taking into account the above and the following false debug message on the first attempt. if(this.getIndex() == -1) { if (this.getLogger().isDebugEnabled() == true) { this.getLogger().debug("Freeing at index=" + this.getIndex()); } ((Store)this.getStoreList().get(0)).free(); this.setIndex(0); } else { It says it is "Freeing at index=-1" but then actually frees at index 0. Conclusion 1: Debug printout is a bit misleading. Conclusion 2: Items are removed from store 0 twice as often as from stores 1 and 2. Have I got this right? Is it intentional or a mistake? Regards, Peter. P.S. The debug printout is on my initial posting under this heading. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
