Alex Parvulescu commented on JCR-3040:
--------------------------------------

thanks for all the comments!

the biggest problem with the initial commit (now patch) was that the impact of 
the jmx support was unknown in a default scenario where everything is disabled 
but there still is an impact on the core operations.
that is what I'm trying to figure out now, as the results of the tests were not 
clear.

to me performance with the stats enabled is not an issue in the first 
iteration, getting a good starting point is. I also needed to start pushing out 
code to be reviewed, as it piled up on my machine which in the end resulted in 
a huge commit, and then a huge headache :)

@thomas: 
 - 10% slower? where did you get the number from? the tests that I ran were 
inconclusive, see @stefan's comment

  I agree with your observations, but it feels a bit like premature 
optimization until we actually get the code into JR core (currentTimeMillis vs 
nanoTime, BigDecimal vs double, locks vs volatile).

@stefan
Yes, I'm refactoring to have just one bean (like a dynamic registry) enabled 
from the start, which would ideally be able to enable other jmx beans on demand.
I don't like the system property idea, as it kinda defeats the purpose of 
having jmx support ootb without a restart.

'slight interest' I should change the description at one point, the priorities 
constantly change, so should the issue description. 
I also don't see the regression risk, we test constantly for performance 
degradation on the core parts, plus we'll disable everything ootb. the jmx 
support has a lot of benefits too, I'm sure in the end it will be worth it.

@jukka
  - I completely agree on the performance, I still need to run some tests, once 
we all agree on what the basis of the jmx support will look like (and where it 
will reside).

I'll concentrate on building a really low impact ootb jmx support (disabled and 
with a minimal footprint), then we can measure each component and optimize as 
needed.

As we appear to be having a vote for or against jmx support in general, I'll 
also send an email to the list, to gather some more info on this topic.

> I've named them Core stats. This will include:
>  - number of sessions currently opened
>  - session read / write operations per second
> The stats refresh once a minute.
> This is disabled by default, so it will not affect performance.
