Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-1574:
--------------------------------------------

I'm working on an initial patch for this...

bq. I think the only open question is how we'll shrink the pool, most likely 
there'd be an expiration on the pooled objects.

I think we can simply have a "max pooled free bit vectors"... or we may want to 
expire by time/staleness as well.

bq. With RT, the parallel arrays will grow, so the pool will need to be size 
based, eg, when the arrays are grown, all of the previous arrays may be 
forcefully evicted, or they may simply expire.

True... but, like the other per-doc arrays, the BV can be overallocated 
(ArrayUtil.oversize) to accommodate further added docs.

> PooledSegmentReader pools the underlying byte arrays of deleted docs and 
> norms for realtime search.  It is designed for use with IndexReader.clone 
> which can create many copies of byte arrays, which are of the same length for 
> a given segment.  When pooled they can be reused which could save on memory.  
> Do we want to benchmark the memory usage comparison of PooledSegmentReader vs 
> GC?  Many times GC is enough for these smaller objects.
