Jason Rutherglen commented on LUCENE-2573:
------------------------------------------

bq. We can modify MockRAMDir to optionally "take its sweet time" when writing 
certain files?

Yes, I think we need to implement something of this nature.  We *could* even 
randomly assign a different delay value per flush.  Of course how the test 
would instigate this from outside of DW, is somewhat of a different issue.

> Now that we have DocumentsWriterPerThreads we need to track total consumed 
> RAM across all DWPTs.
> A flushing strategy idea that was discussed in LUCENE-2324 was to use a 
> tiered approach:  
> - Flush the first DWPT at a low water mark (e.g. at 90% of allowed RAM)
> - Flush all DWPTs at a high water mark (e.g. at 110%)
> - Use linear steps in between high and low watermark:  E.g. when 5 DWPTs are 
> used, flush at 90%, 95%, 100%, 105% and 110%.
> Should we allow the user to configure the low and high water mark values 
> explicitly using total values (e.g. low water mark at 120MB, high water mark 
> at 140MB)?  Or shall we keep for simplicity the single setRAMBufferSizeMB() 
> config method and use something like 90% and 110% for the water marks?
