Simon Willnauer updated LUCENE-7300: ------------------------------------ Attachment: LUCENE-7300.patch I added some lines to the javadocs [~dweiss] > Add directory wrapper that optionally uses hardlinks in copyFrom > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-7300 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-7300 > Project: Lucene - Core > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 6.1 > Reporter: Simon Willnauer > Fix For: 6.1 > > Attachments: LUCENE-7300.patch, LUCENE-7300.patch > > > Today we always do byte-by-byte copy in Directory#copyFrom. While this is > reliable and should be the default, certain situations can be improved by > using hardlinks if possible to get constant time copy on OS / FS that support > such an operation. Something like this could reside in misc if it's contained > enough since it requires LinkPermissions to be set and needs to detect if > both directories are subclasses of FSDirectory etc. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
