OIntent

Declaring an Intent allows you to optimize OrientDB in one call for a specific class of operations. While these declaration won't offer you much benefit under general usage, they can dramatically speed up performance for a specific task, such as a large insert or complex read.

Currently, OrientDB supports the following intents:

IntentDescription
OIntentMassiveInsertOptimizes OrientDB for a large write operation
OIntentMassiveReadOptimizes OrientDB for a large read operation
OIntentNoCacheOptimizes OrientDB to operate without a cache

Each of these classes is a subclass of OIntent.
