Hello Fabian (<fhue...@gmail.com>), Many thanks for your encouraging words about the blogs. I want to make a sincere attempt.
To summarise my understanding of the rule of removal of the elements from the window (after going through your last mail), here are two corollaries: 1) If my workflow has no triggers (and hence, no evictors), my application will run out of memory, perhaps sooner than I expect. 2) If I am using CountTriggers only (and no Evictors), then I too my application will run out of memory, eventually. Could you please strike them with Yes/No? I understand why removal of elements from the window is essential. In fact if older elements are not removed, new elements cannot come in and therefore, the conceptual proposition of a **flowing Stream** is not realized in the right manner. -- Nirmalya -- Software Technologist http://www.linkedin.com/in/nirmalyasengupta "If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost.
