robert engels commented on LUCENE-753:
--------------------------------------
As I stated quit a while ago, this has been a long accepted bug in the JDK.
See http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6265734
It was filed and accepted over 3 years ago.
The problem is that the pread performs an unnecessary lock on the file
descriptor, instead of using Windows "overlapped" reads.

> As suggested by Doug, we could use NIO pread to avoid synchronization on the
> underlying file.
> This could mitigate any MT performance drop caused by reducing the number of
> files in the index format.
