The query compilation cache is a Map used to cache
parsed query strings. As a result, most queries are only parsed once in
OpenJPA, and cached thereafter. You can control the compilation cache through
the
openjpa.QueryCompilationCache configuration property. This
property accepts a plugin string (see Section 4, “
Plugin Configuration
”)
describing the Map used to associate query strings and
their parsed form. This property accepts the following aliases:

org.apache.openjpa.util.CacheMap
|
The default option. Uses a
CacheMap to store compilation data.
CacheMap maintains a fixed number of cache entries, and an
optional soft reference map for entries that are moved out of the LRU space.
So, for applications that have a monotonically increasing number of distinct
queries, this option can be used to ensure that a fixed amount of memory is
used by the cache.

org.apache.openjpa.lib.util.ConcurrentHashMap
| This is the fastest option, but compilation data is never dropped from the cache, so if you use a large number of dynamic queries, this option may result in ever-increasing memory usage. Note that if your queries only differ in the values of the parameters, this should not be an issue. |
false | none | Disables the compilation cache. |
