Michael McCandless updated LUCENE-2056:
---------------------------------------

    Attachment: LUCENE-2056.patch

Attached patch, creating a DirectNIOFSDirectory, using direct ByteBuffers for 
read (Indexinput) and write (IndexOutput).

With some simple initial tests (a TermQuery, OR query, PhraseQuery), on CentOS 
5.4, Java 1.6.0_17 64bit, it seems to be a bit (~1-3%) faster than 
NIOFSDirectory.

> Should NIOFSDir use direct ByteBuffers?

> I'm trying to test NRT performance, and noticed when I dump the thread stacks 
> that the darned threads often seem to be in 
> {{java.nio.Bits.copyToByteArray(Native Method)}}... so I wondered whether we 
> could/should use direct ByteBuffers, and whether that would gain performance 
> in general.  We currently just use our own byte[] buffer via 
> BufferedIndexInput.
> It's hard to test since it's likely platform specific, but if it does result 
> in gains it could be an easy win.
