    Alan - I think that in Eilon's scenario it is the consumer that implements
    the search service and only uses the producer to display the results. That
    way the consumer has full control.

    Hi Eilon,
    
    It seems to me the Consumer still doesn't really need a say in how the
    Producer implements the search service runtime model.  It's true that if
    the Producer creates all of these transient entities, there is the issue of
    when it is "safe" to destroy them.  Transient entities don't have an
    inherent lifecycle, but the sessions which talk to them do...so, when these
    sessions have timed out, the Producer is able to determine that a transient
    entity is no longer a party to any active session.  Would it be valid to
    say that the Producer, at that point, may assume the transient entity is
    stale and destroy it?  I guess this is a variation on reference counting/GC
    that Java developers are already familiar with.
    
    I don't think it's unrealistic to expect the Producer to employ
    intelligence like this to efficiently manage its entities.
    
    Alan
