Mark Harwood commented on LUCENE-2454:
--------------------------------------
Robust use of this feature is dependent on careful management of segments i.e.
that all compound documents are held in the same segment.
Michael Busch suggested the introduction of a new "FlushPolicy" on IndexWriter
to offer the required control. (see
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/lucene-dev/201005.mbox/%3c4be5a14c.6040...@gmail.com%3e
)
Sounds sensible to me given that IndexWriter currently manages to muddle 2
alternative policies in the one implementation and it looks like we now need a
third.
Is this the place to start the debate on "FlushPolicy" ?
My guess is this change would involve :
* Deprecating/removing IndexWriter's setMaxBufferedDocs and setRAMBufferSizeMB.
* Providing a new "FlushPolicy" abstract class that is called with a
"BufferContext " class to hold number buffered docs + ram usage. FlushPolicy is
asked if flushing of various structures should be triggered given the context
* Provide default implementations of FlushPolicy that are
number-of-documents-based and RAM-based.
* Provide a special "NestedDocumentFlushPolicy" that can wrap any other policy
(ram/num docs) but only triggers flushes when application code has primed it to
say a batch of related documents is completed.
Let me know where it's best to continue the thinking on these IndexWriter
changes.
