---------------------------------------
Attachment: LUCENE-4203.patch
Initial rough patch ... not ready to commit and needs a good random test.
> Add IndexWriter.tryDeleteDocument, to delete by document id when possible
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: LUCENE-4203

> Spinoff from LUCENE-4069.
> In that use case, where the app needs to first lookup a document, then
> call updateDocument, it's wasteful today because the relatively costly
> lookup (by a primary key field, eg "id") is done twice.
> But, since you already resolved the PK to docID on the first lookup,
> it would be nice to then delete by that docID and then you can call
> addDocument instead.
> So I worked out a rough start at this, by adding
> IndexWriter.tryDeleteDocument. It'd be a very expert API: it takes a
> SegmentInfo (referencing the segment that contains the docID), and as
> long as that segment hasn't yet been merged away, it will mark the
> document for deletion and return true (success). If it has been
> merged away it returns false and the app must then delete-by-term. It
> only works if the writer is in NRT mode (ie you've opened an NRT
> reader).
> In LUCENE-4069 using tryDeleteDocument gave a ~20% net speedup.
> I think tryDeleteDocument would also be useful when Solr "updates" a
> document by loading all stored fields, changing them, and calling
> updateDocument.
