Do we miss the getAll(List keys) method for data cache?
When fetching objects with eager "to-many" relationships, the code is calling get(Object key) multiple time (one for each object in the relationship). For example, it is doing 1 get() call for each order placed by a customer which we are fetching, that means 100 calls for a customer with 100 orders. The performance can be greatly improved if we have getAll(List keys) methods which returns all orders in one call. This is especially important in a distributed environment. Is there a way (new plug-in) to avoid the multiple-trip for single relationship, or can we implement the code to improve the performance in this area? Many thanks. Daniel
