Aaron McCurry commented on LUCENE-2205:
---------------------------------------

My in memory implementation uses Vints and Vlongs, so they aren't that bad for 
storing the fileoffsets and blockpointer's.

> Rework of the TermInfosReader class to remove the Terms[], TermInfos[], and 
> the index pointer long[] and create a more memory efficient data structure.

> Basically packing those three arrays into a byte array with an int array as 
> an index offset.  
> The performance benefits are stagering on my test index (of size 6.2 GB, with 
> ~1,000,000 documents and ~175,000,000 terms), the memory needed to load the 
> terminfos into memory were reduced to 17% of there original size.  From 291.5 
> MB to 49.7 MB.  The random access speed has been made better by 1-2%, load 
> time of the segments are ~40% faster as well, and full GC's on my JVM were 
> made 7 times faster.
> I have already performed the work and am offering this code as a patch.  
> Currently all test in the trunk pass with this new code enabled.  I did write 
> a system property switch to allow for the original implementation to be used 
> as well.
> -Dorg.apache.lucene.index.TermInfosReader=default or small
> I have also written a blog about this patch here is the link.
