Limitations of Certain Map Methods Certain methods exposed in Map have certain limitations when used with Infinispan, such as size(), values(), keySet() and entrySet().  Specifically, these methods are unreliable and only provide a best-effort guess.  They do not acquire locks, either local or global, and concurrent modifications, additions and removals will not be considered in the result of any of these calls.  Further, they only operate on the local data container, and as such, do not give you a global view of state.   Attempting to perform these operations globally would have large performance impact as well as become a scalability bottleneck.  As such, these methods should only be used for informational or debugging purposes only.
