soft reference memory cache
---------------------------

                 Key: JCS-54
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCS-54
             Project: JCS
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: jcs-1.3
         Environment: mac, java 6
            Reporter: Tore Halset
            Assignee: Aaron Smuts


I am caching some huge objects in a JCS disc cache. The objects are 3-15MB in serialized size and there are a lot of them. The normal setup with a LRUMemoryCache and a IndexedDiskCache works fine, but I would like to store as many objects in ram as possible without risking going out of ram. To get to this goal I have created a SoftReferenceMemoryCache that is based on a ConcurrentHashMap<Serializable, SoftReference<ICacheElement>>

This task is to track the work and discuss this with others. Or perhaps get some feedback that this is not a good idea.
