Right, mixed version clusters. The opaque blob isn't versioned, and there isn't an opportunity for min version negotiation that you have with the messaging service. The result is situations where a client begins a read on one node, and attempts to read the next page from a different node over a protocol version where the paging state serialization format has changed. This causes an exception deserializing the paging state and the read fails.
There are ways around this, but they're not comprehensive (I think), and they're much more involved than just interpreting Integer.MAX_VALUE as unlimited. The "right" solution would be for the paging state to be deserialized/serialized on the client side, but that won't happen in 4.0. > On Sep 24, 2019, at 1:12 PM, Jon Haddad <j...@jonhaddad.com> wrote: > > What's the pain point?
