I'm also like to hear the answers - we're also seeing an apparent database
write per CMP bean reference.
At this point our test programs (not our real application...) are clients
that access entity beans directly, rather than going through a session bean
facade. We've speculated that the individual database writes somehow
result from the direct client accesses, but we're only guessing. Changing
transaction attributes doesn't make any difference, and (for now) we have
exclusive-write-access="true" on every table.
I have to periodically justify CMP vs BMP, not to mention Orion, and it's a
problem when I can't explain why caching doesn't seem to be working...
Come on guys, share some details. You don't have to delve into proprietary
information, but the 5 minute overview would make life a lot easier for
those of us who have to justify Orion to our investors - and ourselves -
when it comes time to bet our business on it. We'd appreciate it.
