Earwin Burrfoot commented on LUCENE-2779:
-----------------------------------------
If you don't write, you don't care about locking in RAMDir at all. Your reader
opens files once, and then never ever does it again.
Believe me, this is so pointless.
> Use ReadWriteLock in RAMDirectory

> RAMDirectory synchronizes on its instance in many places to protect access to
> map of RAMFiles, in addition to updating the sizeInBytes member. In many
> places the sync is done for 'read' purposes, while only in few places we need
> 'write' access. So I think ReadWriteLock can be useful.
> Also, syncing around sizeInBytes is unnecessary IMO, since it's an AtomicLong
> ...
> I'll post a patch shortly.
