Jason Rutherglen commented on LUCENE-2312: ------------------------------------------ I'll post a new patch shortly that fixes bugs and adds a bit more to the functionality. The benchmark results are interesting. Array copies are very fast, I don't see any problems with that, the median time is 2 ms. The concurrent skip list map is expensive to add numerous 10s of thousands of terms to. I think that is to be expected. The strategy of amortizing that cost by creating sorted by term int[]s will probably be more performant than CSLM. The sorted int[] terms can be merged just like segments, thus RT becomes a way to remove the [NRT] cost of merging [numerous] postings lists. The int[] terms can be merged in the background so that raw indexing speed is not affected. > Search on IndexWriter's RAM Buffer > ---------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-2312 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2312 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: core/search > Affects Versions: Realtime Branch > Reporter: Jason Rutherglen > Assignee: Michael Busch > Fix For: Realtime Branch > > Attachments: LUCENE-2312-FC.patch, LUCENE-2312.patch, > LUCENE-2312.patch, LUCENE-2312.patch > > > In order to offer user's near realtime search, without incurring > an indexing performance penalty, we can implement search on > IndexWriter's RAM buffer.
