Leif Hedstrom updated TS-1703:
------------------------------
Labels: A (was: )
> simultaneous cache entry refresh has performance issues
> -------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: TS-1703
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-1703
> Project: Traffic Server
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Cache, HTTP
> Reporter: William Bardwell
> Labels: A
> Fix For: 3.5.0
>
>
> If you use enable_read_while_writer off, any requests after the first that
> occur while a cache entry needs to be refreshed end up going to the origin
> (internally the second request treats things as a cache miss.)
> If you use enable_read_while_writer on, then a lot of requests are answered
> from a single refresh, but occasionally some will have trouble getting some
> sort of write lock and will still fail, and will go to the origin when they
> shouldn't. (And they will trigger TS-1702 until that is fixed.)
> I would argue that for both lock failure cases, instead of just ignoring the
> cache entry, it should be used in a read-only mode and should still do a
> refresh, and just use the entry if a 304 is received or use the new contents
> (but don't save them, since it doesn't have a write lock) if it does not get
> a 304.
