Yep, I looked at it. I don't know about anyone else, but I strongly prefer not 
to use native code if I can help it (makes deployment more of a pain since you 
need the right binary for your architecture, possibility of native resource 
leaks that are hard to debug). If there exists a Java API I'd much rather use 
that.

Exactly: thats why if this AsyncDirectory that waits doesn't have too much 
overhead, it would be a nice replacement for that jni crap.

But we can probably get all of this in lucene faster if we break the issue up a 
little bit :)

> I have implemented 3 Directory subclasses using NIO2 API's (available on 
> JDK7).  These may be suitable for inclusion in a Lucene contrib module.
> See the mailing list at http://lucene.markmail.org/thread/lrv7miivzmjm3ml5 
> for more details about this code and the advantages it provides.
> The code is attached as a zip to this issue.  I'll be happy to make any 
> changes requested.  I've included some minimal smoke tests, but any help in 
> how to use the normal Lucene tests to perform more thorough testing would be 
> appreciated.
