Jason Rutherglen commented on LUCENE-831:
-----------------------------------------
I'm trying to figure out how to integrate Bobo faceting field
caches with this patch, I applied the patch, browsed the
ValueSource API and yeah, it's not what I expected. "we can
return arrays, objects, or anything and your grandmother" not
Grandma! But yeah we need to somehow support probably plain Java
objects rather than every primitive derivative?
(In reference to Mark's post 2nd to last post) Bobo efficiently
nicely calculates facets for multiple values per doc which is
the same thing as "multi value faceting"?
> by back compat with deletes, norms though.
Are norms and deletes implemented? These would just be byte
arrays in the current approach? If not how would they be
represented? It seems like for deleted docs we'd want the
BitVector returned from a ValueSource.get type of method?
M.M.: "Updatability is tricky... ValueSource would maybe need a
"startChanges()" API, which would copy the array (copy-on-write)
if it's not already private"
Hmm... Does this mean we'd replace the current IndexReader
method of performing updates on norms and deletes with this more
generic update mechanism?
It would be cool to get CSF going?

> Motivation:
> 1) Complete overhaul the API/implementation of "FieldCache" type things...
> a) eliminate global static map keyed on IndexReader (thus
> eliminating synch block between completley independent IndexReaders)
> b) allow more customization of cache management (ie: use
> expiration/replacement strategies, disk backed caches, etc)
> c) allow people to define custom cache data logic (ie: custom
> parsers, complex datatypes, etc... anything tied to a reader)
> d) allow people to inspect what's in a cache (list of CacheKeys) for
> an IndexReader so a new IndexReader can be likewise warmed.
> e) Lend support for smarter cache management if/when
> IndexReader.reopen is added (merging of cached data from subReaders).
> 2) Provide backwards compatibility to support existing FieldCache API with
> the new implementation, so there is no redundent caching as client code
> migrades to new API.
