Does "hotspot" reffers to java virtual machine?

 Hi, 

There is no design document about that. Lucene uses MMAP for all index files 
since a long time ago. DocValues is just another implementation. Basically it 
uses IndexInput's methods to access the underlying data, which is memory mapped 
if you are on 64 bit platforms. For DocValues there are also positional reads 
available. There is not much stuff specifically for docvalues, it is just a 
file format that supports column based access with positional reads. The mmap 
implementation is separated from this and a bit lower in the I/O layer of 
Lucene. Sorting is just a use case of DocValues, but it does not sort directly 
on the mmapped files, there are several abstractions inbetween (which are of 
course removed by the Hotspot optimizer). 

Some information (a bit older, but still valid) is here:
