[jira] Updated: (DERBY-5131) Disable the istat daemon by default for 10.8.1

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-5131?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Rick Hillegas updated DERBY-5131:
---------------------------------

    Attachment: derby-5131-01-aa-disableIn10.8.1.diff

Attaching derby-5131-01-aa-disableIn10.8.1.diff. This patch turns off the istat daemon by default and disables the istat tests. Regression tests ran cleanly for me. I verified by hand that the istat tests now fail if you run them: the required statistics tuples no longer turn up. Committed at subversion revision 1081416.

Touches the following files:

--------

M      java/engine/org/apache/derby/impl/sql/catalog/DataDictionaryImpl.java

Turns off the istat daemon by default.

--------

M      java/testing/org/apache/derbyTesting/functionTests/tests/store/_Suite.java

Disables the istat tests.

> Turning on the istat daemon increases the risk of problems which arise when a database shuts down in the middle of collecting index statistics. There is concern that this increased risk could be significant. A consensus has developed that the istat daemon should not run by default in 10.8.1. For the shutdown-related problem, see DERBY-5108. For the community discussion of the risk to 10.8.1, see this email thread: http://old.nabble.com/opinions-on-a-less-aggressive-release-of-the-istats-feature--to31129980.html#a31143697
> This issue tracks the work needed to turn off the istat daemon (by default) in 10.8.1 but re-enable it as the default on the trunk.
