Jason Rutherglen commented on LUCENE-2312:
------------------------------------------

The patches I've been submitting to LUCENE-2575 probably should go here.  Once 
the new byte block pool that records the slice level at the beginning of the 
slice is finished, the skip list can be completed, and then the basic 
functionality for searching on the RAM buffer will be done.  At that point the 
concurrency and memory efficiency may be focused on and tested.  In addition 
the deletes must be implemented.

> In order to offer user's near realtime search, without incurring
> an indexing performance penalty, we can implement search on
> IndexWriter's RAM buffer. This is the buffer that is filled in
> RAM as documents are indexed. Currently the RAM buffer is
> flushed to the underlying directory (usually disk) before being
> made searchable. 
> Todays Lucene based NRT systems must incur the cost of merging
> segments, which can slow indexing. 
> Michael Busch has good suggestions regarding how to handle deletes using max 
> doc ids.

> The area that isn't fully fleshed out is the terms dictionary,
> which needs to be sorted prior to queries executing. Currently
> IW implements a specialized hash table. Michael B has a
> suggestion here:
