> Currently, FST loads all the terms into heap memory during index open. This 
> causes frequent JVM OOM issues if the term size gets big. A better way of 
> doing this will be to lazily load FST using mmap. That ensures only the 
> required terms get loaded into memory.
>  
> Lucene can expose API for providing list of fields to load terms offheap. I'm 
> planning to take following approach for this:
>  # Add a boolean property fstOffHeap in FieldInfo
>  # Pass list of offheap fields to lucene during index open (ALL can be 
> special keyword for loading ALL fields offheap)
>  # Initialize the fstOffHeap property during lucene index open
>  # FieldReader invokes default FST constructor or OffHeap constructor based 
> on fstOffHeap field
>  
> I created a patch (that loads all fields offheap), did some benchmarks using 
> es_rally and results look good.
