Jason Rutherglen commented on LUCENE-2793:
------------------------------------------
{quote}this issue only adds the IOContext, threading it down to when you open
an input / create an output{quote}
Does this mean we're not implementing this part?
{quote}This will require fixing how IW pools readers, so that a reader opened
for merging is not then used for searching, and vice/versa. Really, it's only
all the open file handles that need to be different - we could in theory share
del docs, norms, etc, if that were somehow possible.{quote}
> Directory createOutput and openInput should take an IOContext

> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Store
> Reporter: Michael McCandless

> Today for merging we pass down a larger readBufferSize than for searching
> because we get better performance.
> I think we should generalize this to a class (IOContext), which would hold
> the buffer size, but then could hold other flags like DIRECT (bypass OS's
> buffer cache), SEQUENTIAL, etc.
> Then, we can make the DirectIOLinuxDirectory fully usable because we would
> only use DIRECT/SEQUENTIAL during merging.
