Carsten Ziegeler commented on SLING-8481:
-----------------------------------------
a) is already handled by SLING-8474
b) I don't like the idea of a sidecar, the feature model provides extensions
and an extension can be used for this. This is one of the use
cases/requirements we had in the initial design of the feature model.
> Caching of Feature Model Analyser Metadata
> ------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SLING-8481
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-8481
> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Feature Model
> Reporter: Dominik Süß
> Priority: Major
>
> The feature model analyser is currently acting on the information of the
> feature model files as well as the metadata of artifacts. While feature
> models have a small footprint the extraction of the metadata from binaries is
> costly.
> Caching of this metadata should be improved in 2 ways:
> a) metadata should only be extracted once and be cached in process to avoid
> repetitive reading of binaries to access the same metadta
> b) it should be possible to store a "sidecar" artifact to a feature model to
> contain the extracted metadata from the binaries it references to eliminate
> the need for full binaries to be parsed or potentially even to have to be
> present for the analyser to run.
