But I guess someone would like to avoid having to call ClusterNode.sync() from custom code if needed, because of code-dependency on a clustered configuration. A trade-off. But from your reply I may conclude the automatic sync and the manual Session.refresh() have essentially the same result? >> - Why is a refresh more expansive when there are more cluster nodes? >> > This I don't know. > I meant 'expensive' and not 'expansive' :) But I guess you guessed that. Should this be something you should know? Is it strange behavior? Or might somebody else know why we see this effect?
