NRTCachingDirectory delegates to another directory and simply caches small segments in RAM - usually it delegates MMapDirectory by default. So likely you won't notice any changes, because you have not likely really changed anything. NRTCachingDirectory simply helps in the NRT case and doesn't really hurt that I've seen in the std case. It's more like a help dir than a replacement. - Mark
