AFAIK, the main objective of IGNORE_RETURN_VALUES has been to avoid having to check what the previous value was. Even if putIfAbsent() would not return the previous value, it needs to check if put happens for the first time, so there's an attempt to retrieve the previous value, if there's any, from the cluster. > On the other hand, why not adopt the JCache interface and stop implementing > Map? ^ The Java 8 API I've been working on tries to make this easier to achieve (and update will be available in the next week or so!), but I don't think we can abandon ConcurrentMap just yet... > >> >>> - Drop asymmetric marshalling [1] > > +1, but it should be *asynchronous* marshalling. > >>> - Remove/change some transaction options [2] >>> - ReplicationQueue - one should not be allowed to specify it as an instance >>> - ReplicationQueue - enabled should be implicit ⇔ interval > 0 || >>> queueSize > 0.
