    Rehash behavior and number of entries on nodes

    an1310

      We have a unit test that simply places 30K keys in the cache.  This is a distributed cache with numOwners = 2.  So after the cache starts up, there are a total of 60K objects across the 3 nodes.  These are counted by cache.entrySet().size().

       

      Total number of entries: 29128

      Total number of entries: 9463

      Total number of entries: 21409

      Sum: 60000

       

      The test then removes a node and waits for the LEAVE rehash to finish:

       

      After LEAVE rehash. Total number of entries: 30000

      After LEAVE rehash. Total number of entries: 30000

       

      The test then adds a new node back into the cluster.  Here are the counts (again, through cache.entrySet().size() ).

       

      After JOIN rehash. Total number of entries: 14969

      After JOIN rehash. Total number of entries: 30000

      After JOIN rehash. Total number of entries: 30000

      Sum: 74969

       

      The test is expecting only 60K objects, so it fails.  If I disable this check and try to clear() each cache instance, I get the following output (waiting 10 seconds for operations to complete).

       

      After cache.clear(). Total number of entries: 0

      After cache.clear(). Total number of entries: 7588

      After cache.clear(). Total number of entries: 6628

      Sum: 14216

       

      That isn't what I'm expecting at all.

       

      The unit test is attached to https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-1012
