on Windows 64-bit, maybe we should default to a better maxBBufSize in MMapDirectory -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: LUCENE-2832 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2832 Project: Lucene - Java Issue Type: Improvement Components: Store Reporter: Robert Muir Fix For: 3.1, 4.0 Currently the default max buffer size for MMapDirectory is 256MB on 32bit and Integer.MAX_VALUE on 64bit: {noformat} public static final int DEFAULT_MAX_BUFF = Constants.JRE_IS_64BIT ? Integer.MAX_VALUE : (256 * 1024 * 1024); {noformat} But, in windows on 64-bit, you are practically limited to 8TB. This can cause problems in extreme cases, such as: http://www.lucidimagination.com/search/document/7522ee54c46f9ca4/map_failed_at_getsearcher Perhaps it would be good to change this default such that its 256MB on 32Bit *OR* windows, but leave it at Integer.MAX_VALUE on other 64-bit and "64-bit" (48-bit) systems. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
