[Geoserver-devel] Moving indexed-shapefile out of the standard distribution?

Hi all,
today I manage to find a bug on the indexed shapefile datastore (http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOT-1014) which makes me think
we should not ship it as part of the standard distribution, because
a heavy usage of that datastore sooner or later would make
geoserver stop serving altogheter: once the open file cap has
been reached the Dispatcher class won't be able to create the
temporary request files any more.

What do you think?
Cheers
Andrea

Hi,

I can confirm this issue with 20 concurrent users. After about 15 requests each Geoserver simply returns nothing.

Amr, if you need spatial indexing I would suggest to use postgis,
it's the most stable datastore we have.

Otherwise, in my testing plain shapefile is working just ok.
