Method SetKeystringCacheSize

Namespace

Scaleout.Client

Assembly

Scaleout.Client.dll

SetKeystringCacheSize(int)

Sets this size of the internal keystring cache for caches that use System.String as the TKey type parameter.

public CacheBuilder<TKey, TValue> SetKeystringCacheSize(int keystringCacheSize)

Parameters

keystringCacheSize int

Number of string key items to hold in the internal cache.

Returns

CacheBuilder<TKey, TValue>

A builder object that can be used to further configure the cache.

Remarks

The internal cache of key strings does not typically affect the performance of ordinary CRUD-style client applications--the default of 10,000 is sufficient for most use cases.

Consider using a large keystringCacheSize in PMI invocation handler applications or other applications that process a high number of events from the ServiceEvents class. A keystring cache that is large enough to hold all object keys involved in repeated Invoke operations will reduce round trips to the ScaleOut service.

Applications that perform query operations that return large numbers of string keys may also benefit from a large keystring cache.

Note that a call to SetKeyEncoder(KeyEncoder<TKey>) will override a call to this method.
