Hello,
as stated above, db batches might occure, but are not my main access scenario. I don't want to break a chosen BMP approach (that fits well for 95% of my application) because of a performance issue on some two or three batches, which - as you mentioned - might be fixed with the next JBoss version.
Anyway, this sounds like a good prospect for improved batch performance in JBoss 4.
Kind regards,
Arno Huetter
