Mark Struberg created BVAL-154: ---------------------------------- Summary: reduce memory footprint of BeanMeta Key: BVAL-154 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BVAL-154 Project: BVal Issue Type: Bug Components: jsr303 Affects Versions: 1.1.2 Reporter: Mark Struberg Assignee: Mark Struberg Fix For: 1.1.3, 2.0.0
While doing some performance analysis on a project I figured that we store way too many BeanMeta instances. This seems to come from other frameworks checking whether a class has BeanValidation features on them. It also happens within our own CDI BValExtension. The result is that we also cache the BeanMeta for every class which gets queried, regardless whether it has some validation on them or not. We should introduce a 'negative cache' which contains classes which are known to have no validation on them {code:java} getConstraintForClass(Calss c) { if (negativeCache.contains(c)) return new EmptyBeanDescription(c); ... if (noValidationFeatureFound) negativeCache.add(c); } {code} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
