Varun Thacker updated LUCENE-2793:
----------------------------------
Attachment: LUCENE-2793.patch
I think I have successfully threaded IOContext to the codecs and index package
wherever required. There might be instances where I have used Context.Default
wrongly.
I'll begin adding documentation.
In NRTCachingDir.doCacheWrite method where IOContext is used if the context has
it's OnceMergeInfo field null might lead to a bug ? Should cases like those
added to the docs ?
> Directory createOutput and openInput should take an IOContext

> 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.
> 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.
