Richard Marr updated LUCENE-1690:
---------------------------------

    Attachment: LruCache.patch

Attached is a draft of an implementation that uses a WeakHashMap to bind the 
cache to the IndexReader instance, and a LinkedHashMap to provide LRU 
functionality.

Disclaimer: I'm not fluent in Java or OSS contribution so there may be holes or 
bad style in this implementation. I also need to check it meets the project 
coding standards.

Anybody up for giving me some feedback in the meantime?

> The MoreLikeThis object performs term frequency lookups for every query.  
> From my testing that's what seems to take up the majority of time for 
> MoreLikeThis searches.  
> For some (I'd venture many) applications it's not necessary for term 
> statistics to be looked up every time. A fairly naive opt-in caching 
> mechanism tied to the life of the MoreLikeThis object would allow 
> applications to cache term statistics for the duration that suits them.
> I've got this working in my test code. I'll put together a patch file when I 
> get a minute. From my testing this can improve performance by a factor of 
> around 10.
