The other catch is that shared mutable state also needs to be synchronized.
Still River 3.0 should be running at close to raw socket speed, it has the
worlds most scalable security manager and fastest URLClassLoader. The
multiplexer in jeri allows 127 different remote objects to share the same
connection between two endpoints.

Subject: Re: Serialization issues
You do not have to do any IO in readObject/writeObject.
The fact that you have readObject/writeObject methods means that you are forced
to do blocking IO.
It is simple:
readObject(...) {
ois.defaultReadObject();
//the above line MUST be blocking because
verifyMyState();
//this line expects the data to be read
}
Siilarly:
writeObject(ObjectOutputStream oos) {
oos.writeInt(whateverField);
//buffers full? You need to block, sorry
oos.writeObject(...)
}
Thanks,

I am asking what Network I/O you are doing in the readObject/writeObject
methods. Because to me I can't figure out any use-case where that is a
problem...

Don't know about other serialization uses but my issue with it is that it
precludes using it in non-blocking IO.
Sorry if I haven't been clear enough.

And what I/O (network I/O I presume) are you doing during the serialization

It is not possible to do non-blocking as in "non blocking IO" - meaning -
threads do not block on IO operations.
Just google "C10K problem"

I don't follow. What does readObject/writeObject got to do with blocking or
not? You could spin up executors to do the work in parallel if you so wish.
And why is "something else" less blocking? And what are you doing that is
"blocking" since the "work" is (or should be) CPU only, there is limited
(still) opportunity to do that non-blocking (whatever that would mean in
CPU-only circumstance). Feel free to elaborate... I am curious.

Unfortunately due to "writeObject" and "readObject" methods that have to
be handled (to comply with the spec) - it is not possible to
serialize/deserialize in a non-blocking fashion.
So yes... - it is serialization per se.

Oh, well that is not "Serialization" per se... No wonder i didn't get it.

I am not sure I understand what you mean by that.
He means the client thread that makes the remote call blocks waiting for
the remote end to process the request and respond.
