> Key: LUCENE-1743
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1743
> Project: Lucene - Core
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: core/store
> Affects Versions: 2.9
> Reporter: Uwe Schindler
> Assignee: Uwe Schindler
> Labels: dead
> Fix For: 4.4
>
>
> This is a followup to LUCENE-1741:
> Javadocs state (in FileChannel#map): "For most operating systems, mapping a
> file into memory is more expensive than reading or writing a few tens of
> kilobytes of data via the usual read and write methods. From the standpoint
> of performance it is generally only worth mapping relatively large files into
> memory."
> MMapDirectory should get a user-configureable size parameter that is a lower
> limit for mmapping files. All files with a size<limit should be opened using
> a conventional IndexInput from SimpleFS or NIO (another configuration option
> for the fallback?).
