Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-1591:
--------------------------------------------
Should we consider using compress form Apache commons (from Uwe's comment
[above|#action_12698191]) instead of full ant jar?
bq. I basically wait with 1595 (refactoring to benchmark) until this one is
committed, so the sooner the better
Does this issue depend on LUCENE-1595?

> 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.
