Hmm, I was worried quite a number of delete docIDs could be buffered, but I guess it's still better than having to do a flush. So yes, this is better! > Factor merge policy out of IndexWriter > -------------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-847 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-847 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Index > Reporter: Steven Parkes > Assignee: Steven Parkes > Attachments: concurrentMerge.patch, LUCENE-847.patch.txt, > LUCENE-847.txt > > > If we factor the merge policy out of IndexWriter, we can make it pluggable, > making it possible for apps to choose a custom merge policy and for easier > experimenting with merge policy variants. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
