> A twitter engineer found a bug in the JVM that contributes to GC pause
> problems:
> http://www.evanjones.ca/jvm-mmap-pause.html
> Problem summary (in case the blog post disappears): The JVM calculates
> statistics on things like garbage collection and writes them to a file in the
> temp directory using MMAP. If there is a lot of other MMAP write activity,
> which is precisely how Lucene accomplishes indexing and merging, it can
> result in a GC pause because the mmap write to the temp file is delayed.
> We should implement the workaround in the solr start scripts (disable
> creation of the mmap statistics tempfile) and document the impact in
> CHANGES.txt.
