Hi, I wrote that "soft references doesn't make sense" but I was wrong... I always mix up weak and soft references... I believe _weak_ references don't make sense.
I have now integrated your patch (it is committed to the trunk). I made a few changes: I combined both settings into the cache type (CACHE_TYPE=LRU, TQ, SOFT_LRU, SOFT_TQ). The prefix WEAK_ is also implemented but not documented. I read again the WeakReference / SoftReference documentation and it looks like it doesn't make sense to support it, but it's only a few lines of code, so that's OK. If you find out that it helps please tell me. New system property h2.cacheTypeDefault (default: LRU). I simplified the code to generate the Cache object and moved it to CacheLRU (I want to avoid creating a new class CacheFactory). I have re-implemented the SoftHashMap. I think it doesn't make sense to wrap the (Integer) key in a SoftReference. You want the garbage collector to throw away the rows (values), not the keys, because the values need much more memory. You wrote your implementation was running out of memory, probably that was why.
