Simon Willnauer commented on LUCENE-8833:
-----------------------------------------
I do like the idea of #warm but the footprint is much bigger since it's a
public API. I mean for my specific usecase I'd subclass mmap anyway and it
would make it easier that way. FileSwitchDirectory is quite heavy and isn't
really build for what I wanna do. I basically would need a IndexInput factory
that I can plug into a directory that can alternate between NIOFS and mmap etc.
and conditionally preload the mmap. Either way I can work with both I just
think this change is the minimum viable change. lemme know if you are ok moving
forward.

> I think it's useful for subclasses to select the preload flag on a per index
> input basis rather than all or nothing. Here is a patch that has an
> overloaded protected openInput method.
