Jason Rutherglen commented on LUCENE-2575:
------------------------------------------
For the posting skip list we need to implement seek on the
ByteSliceReader. However if we're rewriting a portion of a
slice, then I guess we could have a problem... Meaning we'd be
storing an absolute position in the skip list, and we could go
to look up the value, however that byte(s) could have been
altered to not be delta encoded doc ids anymore, but instead
is/are the forwarding address to the next slice.
Do we need an intelligent mechanism that interacts with the byte
slice writer to not point at byte array elements (ie the end of
slices) that could later be converted into forwarding addresses?

> The current *BlockPool implementations aren't quite concurrent.
> We really need something that has a locking flush method, where
> flush is called at the end of adding a document. Once flushed,
> the newly written data would be available to all other reading
> threads (ie, postings etc). I'm not sure I understand the slices
> concept, it seems like it'd be easier to implement a seekable
> random access file like API. One'd seek to a given position,
> then read or write from there. The underlying management of byte
> arrays could then be hidden?
