Chapter 14. The L1 Cache

14.1. About the L1 Cache

The Level 1 (or L1) cache stores remote cache entries after they are initially accessed, preventing unnecessary remote fetch operations for each subsequent use of the same entries. The L1 cache is created when JBoss Data Grid's cache mode is set to distribution, and is disabled by default.
The temporary location used by the L1 cache can be changed from the default location.
