[KIEKER-1169] Adaptive monitoring: Signature caches currently unbounded #2819

JIRA Issue: KIEKER-1169 Adaptive monitoring: Signature caches currently unbounded Original Reporter: Andre van Hoorn


As discussed today. One bad scenario would, for example, be an adaptation based on a timestamps or trace IDs.

I added a possible solution in a branch with ca20ec477a2006f2d9307ee1622ea18d98d2debc.

The solution allows to configure a limit for the cache:

## The maximal size of the signature cache. This is a weak limit, as the cache can exceed this size
## slightly in practical application.
## Set to 0 for an unbounded cache.
kieker.monitoring.adaptiveMonitoring.maxCacheSize=0
#
## The behaviour of the signature cache, if the maximal size is bounded.
## 0: The cache ignores entries once the maximal size is reached.
## 1: The cache removes a (semi)random entry from the cache once the maximal size is exceeded.
kieker.monitoring.adaptiveMonitoring.boundedCacheBehaviour=0

The limit is weak, as a stronger limit would require additional synchronization in the map. The cache allows two behaviours, shown in the above listing.

A perfomant and thread-safe LRU cache would require some more work, I guess.

Opinions on this before I merge it back into the master?

As discussed today: Use -1 for unbounded buffer; Add description; Add additional behaviour for complete clean; Sanity checks for values

Implemented and merged into the master with 3f5bb352d232e3c489c066a82e645f632164717d.
