---------------------------------------------
In any event, I'd love to see this feature. Are you going to post your patch?
If not, I'd like to take a shot at it.
> Paginated getChildren call
> --------------------------
>
> Key: ZOOKEEPER-2260
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-2260
> Project: ZooKeeper
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Marco P.
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: features
>
> Add pagination support to the getChildren() call, allowing clients to iterate
> over children N at the time.
> Motivations for this include:
> - Getting out of a situation where so many children were created that
> listing them exceeded the network buffer sizes (making it impossible to
> recover by deleting)[1]
> - More efficient traversal of nodes with large number of children [2]
> I do have a patch (for 3.4.6) we've been using successfully for a while, but
> I suspect much more work is needed for this to be accepted.
