Feature pages are design documents that developers have created while collaborating on oVirt.
Most of them are outdated, but provide historical design context.
They are not user documentation and should not be treated as such.

Tasks
Database Access
- Caching
Implement ResultSet caching based on SimpleJdbcTemplate. See http://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/14188/ Change for information on implementation.
- Batch updates
Enable the option of sending multiple insert/update stored procedure calls as a single batch. See http://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/15039/ Change for information on implementation.
- Multi dimensional arrays
Using multiple dimensional arrays as stored procedure parameters to replace the use of fnspliter
- Transaction boundaries
Improve transaction boundaries, so transactions will decrease in duration and make better use of JavaEE transactions.
UI/Admin
- Improve serialization performance
UI/User
Engine/VDSM Communication
- Use HTTP 1.1 compression and keep-alive with VDSM XML-RPC
General Code Improvement
- Cache GUID creation
- Merge NGUID/GUID/UUID
