Well, then that would trigger a follow up question; When is the Query executed, and should there be a way to "re-execute"? I mean size(), find() and iterator() could all trigger the query, but there is one small difference... size() need to return the number of objects that a non-bounded (with first/max) query would return, whereas the find() and iterator() only deal with the (potentially) bounded query. For simple queries, a good backend will be very fast for a SELECT count(*) from Abc where age > 25; Cheers Niclas _______________________________________________ qi4j-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ops4j.org/mailman/listinfo/qi4j-dev
