Create a cache implementation that limits itself to a given RAM size --------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: SOLR-1609 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-1609 Project: Solr Issue Type: New Feature Affects Versions: 1.4 Reporter: Jason Rutherglen Priority: Minor Fix For: 1.5 This is a spinoff from the unrelated SOLR-1308. We can limit the cache sizes by estimated RAM usage. I think in some cases this is a better approach when compared with using soft references as this will effectively limit the cache RAM used. Soft references will utilize the max heap before divesting itself of excessive cached items, which in some cases may not be the desired behavior. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
