Dawid Weiss commented on LUCENE-7700:
-------------------------------------
Thanks for reviewing, Mike. I'm guessing this should go to 7.x only, right? Or
can we backport it to 6.x as well, risking some minor API incompatibilities
(these are internal APIs anyway, but who knows).
> Move throughput control and merge aborting out of IndexWriter's core?

> Here is a bit of a background:
> - I wanted to implement a custom merging strategy that would have a custom
> i/o flow control (global),
> - currently, the CMS is tightly bound with a few classes -- MergeRateLimiter,
> OneMerge, IndexWriter.
> Looking at the code it seems to me that everything with respect to I/O
> control could be nicely pulled out into classes that explicitly control the
> merging process, that is only MergePolicy and MergeScheduler. By default, one
> could even run without any additional I/O accounting overhead (which is
> currently in there, even if one doesn't use the CMS's throughput control).
> Such refactoring would also give a chance to nicely move things where they
> belong -- job aborting into OneMerge (currently in RateLimiter), rate limiter
> lifecycle bound to OneMerge (MergeScheduler could then use per-merge or
> global accounting, as it pleases).
> Just a thought and some initial refactorings for discussion.
