Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-2357:
--------------------------------------------
bq. Is "cleaner hairier" code a new oxymoron? :)
I guess so!!
What I meant was ... it would be best if the SegmentReader's numDeletedDocs
were always correct, but, fixing that in IndexWriter is somewhat tricky. Ie,
the fix could be hairy but the end result ("SegmentReader.numDeletedDocs can
always be trusted") would be cleaner...
> Reduce transient RAM usage while merging by using packed ints array for docID

> We allocate this int[] to remap docIDs due to compaction of deleted ones.
> This uses alot of RAM for large segment merges, and can fail to allocate due
> to fragmentation on 32 bit JREs.
> Now that we have packed ints, a simple fix would be to use a packed int
> array... and maybe instead of storing abs docID in the mapping, we could
> store the number of del docs seen so far (so the remap would do a lookup then
> a subtract). This may add some CPU cost to merging but should bring down
> transient RAM usage quite a bit.
