ASF GitHub Bot updated ZOOKEEPER-3361: -------------------------------------- Labels: pull-request-available (was: ) > Add multi version of getChildren request > ---------------------------------------- > > Key: ZOOKEEPER-3361 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-3361 > Project: ZooKeeper > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: java client, server, tests > Reporter: Peter Szecsi > Assignee: Peter Szecsi > Priority: Minor > Labels: pull-request-available > Original Estimate: 336h > Remaining Estimate: 336h > > There is already a multi operation for \{{delete, create, setData}}... > However, \{{getChildren}} has no version of getting the children of multiple > nodes by one message. > This could heavily improve the efficiency of a traversal (e.g. breadth-first > search) when the latency is high (>1ms). In this case, a simple > \{{deleteAll}} algorithm on 10k nodes takes at least (1ms * 10000 * 2 =) 20 > sec, only to acquire the list of the nodes selected for deleting (it has to > check for every node whether it has children or not). > I would add a version of \{{getChildren}} function to the ZooKeeper API which > accepts lists as well (containing node paths) and returns their children and > introduce a new request type. This way the backward compabilty would not be > hurt but ZK could provide a more robust solution for those who may have > latency issues. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
