Shai Erera commented on LUCENE-2779:
------------------------------------

bq. Doesn't look like a really important patch, that just has to be backported. 

Earwin, I did not *just* backport it. This time I deviated from my usual work 
habit, which is changing 3x before trunk, because I did want to cause any 
mergeprops troubles. But in real life, I work on and improve 3x, and 
back/forward port to trunk -- at least until trunk/4.0 release will be anywhere 
near sight. So for all intent and purposes, this improvement should have gone 
into 3x, as far as I'm concerned. That that we have an issue w/ our backwards 
tests layer (sent a separate email about it) is unrelated to the issue.

As a general practice though, I do not neglect 3x branch -- if something that I 
do can fit there, I will put it there, whether it's a major performance 
improvement, or a minor house cleaning.

> 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. This looks like a perfect use case for ConcurrentHashMap
> Also, syncing around sizeInBytes is unnecessary IMO, since it's an AtomicLong 
> ...
> I'll post a patch shortly.
