Ankit Jain commented on LUCENE-8635:
------------------------------------
Thanks [~sokolov] for updating patch and doing another run. As per my
understanding, seek operation has very less overhead (should be in micro
seconds), as it just sets the buffer to right position? Maybe the number of
seek operations is huge and they add up.
> Lazy loading Lucene FST offheap using mmap
> ------------------------------------------
>
> Key: LUCENE-8635
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-8635
> Project: Lucene - Core
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: core/FSTs
> Environment: I used below setup for es_rally tests:
> single node i3.xlarge running ES 6.5
> es_rally was running on another i3.xlarge instance
> Reporter: Ankit Jain
> Priority: Major
> Attachments: offheap.patch, ra.patch, rally_benchmark.xlsx
>
>
> Currently, FST loads all the terms into heap memory during index open. This
> causes frequent JVM OOM issues if the term size gets big. A better way of
> doing this will be to lazily load FST using mmap. That ensures only the
> required terms get loaded into memory.
>
> Lucene can expose API for providing list of fields to load terms offheap. I'm
> planning to take following approach for this:
> # Add a boolean property fstOffHeap in FieldInfo
> # Pass list of offheap fields to lucene during index open (ALL can be
> special keyword for loading ALL fields offheap)
> # Initialize the fstOffHeap property during lucene index open
> # FieldReader invokes default FST constructor or OffHeap constructor based
> on fstOffHeap field
>
> I created a patch (that loads all fields offheap), did some benchmarks using
> es_rally and results look good.
