Description
This update introduces a lazy loading feature for the chaincode lifecycle cache, allowing chaincode information to be loaded on-demand rather than pre-initialized at startup. This can significantly improve peer startup times, especially in environments with many installed chaincodes. The feature can be enabled via the
core.yaml
configuration file. Additionally, tests have been added to verify the behavior of the cache with lazy loading enabled.Additional details
The implementation includes:
NewCache
function to accept alazyLoadEnabled
parameterInitializeLocalChaincodes
to skip pre-initialization when lazy loading is enabledcache_test.go
peer_lifecycle_lazy_loading.md
core.yaml
to include lazy loading optionThis feature is particularly beneficial for peers with large numbers of installed chaincodes, as it eliminates the need to load all chaincode metadata during peer initialization, resulting in faster startup times.
Related issues
When there are a lot of chaincodes installed (10k+) peers take a long time to start since the cache is initialized. A new behaviour is needed to improve peer startup time when there are a lot of chaincodes installed.
Release Note
New Feature: Added lazy loading support for chaincode lifecycle cache to improve peer startup performance in environments with many installed chaincodes. This feature can be enabled via the
core.yaml
configuration file.
