             Summary: Optimize session saves for Single Queue Dispatching Strategy
                 Key: SLING-8994
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-8994
             Project: Sling
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Content Distribution
            Reporter: Ashish Chopra
             Fix For: Content Distribution Core 0.4.2


Separation of concerns dictate that there's a loose coupling between Distribution Packages and Queue entries, and thus the distribution-packages and queue-items are persisted in different sessions (indeed, depending on queue-impl/distribution-packaging-impl chosen there may not be a need to persist either, or any of them at all).

To enable collection of unreferenced Distribution packages, currently, queue items are be acquired [0] and released [1] on a per-queue basis in {{MultipleQueueDispatchingStrategy}}. Only the distribution-packages that don't have any live references are claimed.

For a 1:1 distribution (as {{SingleQueueDispatchingStrategy}} [2] aims to achieve), acquring and releasing packages is superfluous (since there's only one queue) and as such it should just be sufficient to mark the package 'released' [3] once the queue is done with it.
However, the ref-updates still happen given way it is implemented currently (as a subclass of {{MultipleQueueDispatchingStrategy}} that doesn't override anything [2]).

Opening this issue propose improving {{SingleQueueDispatchingStrategy}} impl. This should slightly optimize the book-keeping and marginally reduce the write-overhead for 1:1 distribution.
