Jason Rutherglen commented on LUCENE-2324: ------------------------------------------ Following up on the previous comment, if the current thread (the one calling add doc) is also the one that needs to do the flushing, then only the thread attached to the doc writer with the greatest ram usage can/should do the flushing? > Per thread DocumentsWriters that write their own private segments > ----------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-2324 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2324 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Index > Reporter: Michael Busch > Assignee: Michael Busch > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 3.1 > > > See LUCENE-2293 for motivation and more details. > I'm copying here Mike's summary he posted on 2293: > Change the approach for how we buffer in RAM to a more isolated > approach, whereby IW has N fully independent RAM segments > in-process and when a doc needs to be indexed it's added to one of > them. Each segment would also write its own doc stores and > "normal" segment merging (not the inefficient merge we now do on > flush) would merge them. This should be a good simplification in > the chain (eg maybe we can remove the *PerThread classes). The > segments can flush independently, letting us make much better > concurrent use of IO & CPU. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: java-dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: java-dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
