Uwe Schindler commented on LUCENE-2832:
---------------------------------------

I would suggest to use a different default for Win64, as the adress space is 
not as small as with 32 bit. How about something like 4 GB or 16 GB?

Also, for 32bit we use 1/8 of possible address space, so why not the same (1/8) 
for win64?

> on Windows 64-bit, maybe we should default to a better maxBBufSize in 
> MMapDirectory

> 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.
