Michael Dürig resolved OAK-5042.
--------------------------------
       Resolution: Won't Fix
    Fix Version/s:     (was: 1.7.1)
                       (was: 1.8)

After further consideration and tests I couldn't find conclusive evidence for 
changing the underlying cache: while some low level probing showed improvements 
in the cache hit rate it also showed negative impacts elsewhere. I suggest to 
take this issue up again should we encounter a specific bottleneck with the 
segment cache which we have a benchmark for we can optimise against.

> Various aspects of how Segment Tar caches segments could possibly improved. 
> The current cache is a result of replacing the former ad-hoc cache with a 
> proper one in OAK-3055. While the former was prone to contention under 
> concurrent load the current cache is too oblivious about reads: read accesses 
> are always served through {{SegmentId.segment}} and never actually hit the 
> cache. This results in frequently accessed segments not to be seen as such by 
> the cache and potentially being prematurely evicted. 
> Possibly approaches to address this problem include: 
> * Reinstantiating the cache we had pre OAK-3055 but making in fully 
> concurrent. 
> * Convey the information about read accesses to the current cache. 
> * In either of the above cases avoid bulk segments from being placed into the 
> cache.
