Hi Christian,

You might consider using the OpenJPAEntityManager.findAll method.  The 
expected advantage is that any objects in the datacache won't cause a 
hit to the database.  If there is a high likelihood that all objects are 
in the datacache, then this is definitely the way to go.  If some 
objects will very likely not be in the cache, then you might want to 
investigate.  I'm not sure whether it will generate one SQL statement 
for all missing objects or one for each.  You might want to turn on SQL 
logging to check,

((OpenJPAEntityManager) em).findAll(...)

Hope this helps,

David
