> (Please note that the feature described in LUCENE-2425 is required reading 
> for this issue.) 
> The real-time policy makes it possible to search and read from a (Lucene) 
> split index in a real-time manner. Specifically, changes made to the split 
> writer will immediately be reflected in all readers that were obtained from 
> it.
>   
> Note that, while the readers based on this policy are real-time, in order to 
> truly achieve real-time searching, one must use a real time searcher, which 
> in turn builds on the index searcher (see attached test cases for more 
> details).
>   
> Now, we describe how this policy overcomes the near-real time limitation of 
> current indices. For every reader, it creates a split in the form of a 
> RAM-based directory, which serves to track changes made to the split index in 
> between the time that and the next reader was obtained. When a new reader is 
> obtained, the corresponding split is dynamically added to that reader, and 
> all the readers that came before it. Note that a reader does not need to (nor 
> does it) see the splits that came before it, since the snapshot of the 
> super-reader that it obtains is current at the time of its inception.
