Shai Erera commented on LUCENE-1591:
------------------------------------
bq. I downloaded the bz2 2008036
I'm almost sure its a typo, but just to verify - did download the 20090306
(enwiki-20090306-pages-articles.xml.bz2), or 2008036?
Anyway, I think I've found a problem. In the javadocs, they document that the
IS version uses the readByte() exclusively, but don't say anything regarding
their OS version. I read the code and noticed it always calls write() and never
uses the array version.
So I wrapped the FOS with a BOS (bufSize=64k) and then with BZOS. I did a short
test, reading 2000 records from the 20070527 file, before and after the change:
|| Num Docs || Before || After || %tg
| 2000 | 106s | 30s | {color:green}72{color}
I think that if that improvement is stable, than the 9 hours run should drop to
~3 hours, which seems right. I didn't measure the time to unzip the file using
WinRAR (the first time I tried it), but it was a couple of hours run.
Once the current run will complete, I'll kick off a new one with that code
change and note the time difference. I'm eager to see it speeds up, but I want
to complete a successful run before :)
> Enable bzip compression in benchmark

> Key: LUCENE-1591
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1591
> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: contrib/benchmark
> Reporter: Shai Erera
> Fix For: 2.9
>
> Attachments: ant-1.7.1.jar, LUCENE-1591.patch
>
>
> bzip compression can aid the benchmark package by not requiring extracting
> bzip files (such as enwiki) in order to index them. The plan is to add a
> config parameter bzip.compression=true/false and in the relevant tasks either
> decompress the input file or compress the output file using the bzip streams.
> It will add a dependency on ant.jar which contains two classes similar to
> GZIPOutputStream and GZIPInputStream which compress/decompress files using
> the bzip algorithm.
> bzip is known to be superior in its compression performance to the gzip
> algorithm (~20% better compression), although it does the
> compression/decompression a bit slower.
> I wil post a patch which adds this parameter and implement it in
> LineDocMaker, EnwikiDocMaker and WriteLineDoc task. Maybe even add the
> capability to DocMaker or some of the super classes, so it can be inherited
> by all sub-classes.
