Hi Kevin,I agree that sql batching is such a huge performance win that most real users would want this feature.

Marc,Concerning the infrastructure for sql batching support... Do you mean that this support is pluggable into the OpenJPA runtime? That is, is there a pluggable interface for other vendors to provide support for sql batching? Or, is it just that the runtime could be updated to support sql batching (and then the source would be out of synch with the OpenJPA repository)?I'm just trying to assess the impact for this "removed" function. If eachvendor that incorporates OpenJPA needs to modify their version of theruntime to provide sql batching support (and it's a common feature), thenthe consistency of OpenJPA will be impacted.From Dave's note, it seems like we have a mistake in the user's guide (at a minimum). But, even if the "addBatch limit" is taken out of the user'sguide, then as each vendor adds this support back in (for performancereasons), the configuration of this feature may also vary from one vendor tothe next.I'm still trying to gather some "real data" to demonstrate the performance advantages of sql batching (or lack there of). But, if Dave's comments are accurate, then maybe we need to consider re-introducing the sql batchingsupport. Not only for performance reasons, but also for runtime and configuration consistency reasons. My two cents worth... :-) Kevin On 1/11/07, Marc Prud'hommeaux <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:David- Batching functionality was not included in the OpenJPA code contribution made by BEA, but you are correct that the infrastructure necessary for its support is in place. I can't comment on whether BEA could be persuaded to contribute that code as well beyond saying that they are always open to community suggestions and feedback.
