I guess we just chose a much simpler way to do this...
Even with you code changes, to see the modification made using the
IndexWriter, it must be closed, and a new IndexReader opened.
So a far simpler way is to get the collection of updates first, then
using opened indexreader,
for each doc in collection
delete document using "key"
endfor
open indexwriter
for each doc in collection
add document
endfor
open indexreader
I don't see how your way is any faster. You must always flush to disk
and open the indexreader to see the changes.

Hi Otis and Robert,
I added an overview of my changes in JIRA. Hope that helps.
Anyway, my test did exercise the small batches, in that in our
incremental updates we delete the documents with the unique term, and
then add the new (which is what I assumed this was improving), and I
saw o appreciable difference.
Robert, could you describe a bit more how your test is set up? Or a
short
code snippet will help me explain.
Without the patch, when inserts and deletes are interleaved in small
batches, the performance can degrade dramatically because the
ramDirectory
is flushed to disk whenever an IndexWriter is closed, causing a lot of
small segments to be created on disk, which eventually need to be
merged.
Is this how your test is set up? And, what are the maxBufferedDocs
and the
maxBufferedDeleteTerms in your test? You won't see a performance
improvement
if they are about the same as the small batch size. The patch works by
internally buffering inserts and deletes into larger batches.
Regards,
Ning
