[jira] [Updated] (GEODE-6005) Investigate DataOutput's "big buffer"

["Jacob S. Barrett (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-6005?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Jacob S. Barrett updated GEODE-6005:
------------------------------------
    Description: 
There is a process global lock for protecting something called "big buffer" but there is no big buffer. It looks like it may just restrict other threads from creating big buffers while another thread has a big buffer. Let's investigate what is really going on here and understand why and if we need to do this.

 

I think a better solution to resource management would be a bounded buffer pool where DataOutput/Input would checkout buffers to some user configurable limit before blocking.
