Hoss Man commented on LUCENE-2822:
----------------------------------
Having read through all of the comments in LUCENE-997 I fail to see why any
Threads are needed in TimeLimitedCollector at all -- repeatedly folks mention
that the use of a Timer thread is purely because System.currentTimeMillis isn't
reliable enough and/or not efficient enough, but if we could use Java 1.5,
System.nanoTime would be exactly what we need.
It's 2011.
We can use Java 1.5 now in core Lucene.
so why don't we just rip out the TimerThread and use System.nanoTime() ?

> This is broken.
