Jason Rutherglen commented on LUCENE-2575: ------------------------------------------ bq. I fear a copy-on-write check per-term is going to be a sizable perf hit. For indexing? The byte[] buffers are also using a page based system. I think we'll need to measure the performance difference. We can always shift the cost to getreader by copying from a writable (indexing based) tf array into a per-reader tf of paged-ints. While this'd be a complete iteration the length of the terms, the CPU cache could make it extremely fast (because each page would be cached, and we'd be iterating sequentially over an array, methinks). The other cost is the lookup of the upto when iterating the postings, however that'd be one time per term-docs instantiation, ie, negligible. > Concurrent byte and int block implementations > --------------------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-2575 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2575 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Index > Affects Versions: Realtime Branch > Reporter: Jason Rutherglen > Fix For: Realtime Branch > > Attachments: LUCENE-2575.patch, LUCENE-2575.patch, LUCENE-2575.patch, > LUCENE-2575.patch > > > The current *BlockPool implementations aren't quite concurrent. > We really need something that has a locking flush method, where > flush is called at the end of adding a document.
