Yonik Seeley commented on SOLR-2565:
------------------------------------

I did some performance tests w/ autoCommit=60000 (60 sec) vs no commits at all 
(10M small docs)
6 runs for each configuration, times in seconds.

no commits (not even at the end): 202,222,217,206,203,196 average=207
autoCommit=60000: 201,206,210,226,220,201 average=210

So committing every 60 seconds actually came out faster (probably due to chance 
because of the high variability).

Aside: there could be a race issue w/ autocommit.  I was checking the 
segments_n files to verify that commits were actually taking place 
periodically.  On a new index, the first file is segments_1.  All of the tests 
ran around 3 minutes 30 seconds... which should have meant 4 more commits, or a 
segments_5 file after 4 minutes.  I only checked a few times, but one time I 
saw a segments_6, and two other times I saw a segments_9 file.  This suggests 
that too many commits are happening for some reason.

> Spinnoff from SOLR-2193. We already have a branch to work on this issue here 
> https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene/dev/branches/solr2193 
> The main goal here is to prevent solr from closing the IW and use IW#commit 
> instead. AFAIK the main issues here are:
> The update handler needs an overhaul.
> A few goals I think we might want to look at:
> 1. Expose the SolrIndexWriter in the api or add the proper abstractions to 
> get done what we now do with special casing:
> 2. Stop closing the IndexWriter and start using commit (still lazy IW init 
> though).
> 3. Drop iwAccess, iwCommit locks and sync mostly at the Lucene level.
> 4. Address the current issues we face because multiple original/'reloaded' 
> cores can have a different IndexWriter on the same index.
> Eventually this is a preparation for NRT support in Solr which I will create 
> a followup issue for.
