[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-388?page=comments#action_12427976 ] Yonik Seeley commented on LUCENE-388: -------------------------------------
Well, the patch changes what the hotspot is, so the hotspot compiler could be trying to compile different code... Daniel, what is the exact test you are running? what JVM and other settings? Perhaps trying both versions with -Xbatch or -Xint would remove the differences? Perhaps we need a method to determine if index "invariants" have been met... > [PATCH] IndexWriter.maybeMergeSegments() takes lots of CPU resources > -------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-388 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-388 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Index > Affects Versions: CVS Nightly - Specify date in submission > Environment: Operating System: Mac OS X 10.3 > Platform: Macintosh > Reporter: Paul Smith > Assigned To: Yonik Seeley > Attachments: IndexWriter.patch, log-compound.txt, > log.optimized.deep.txt, log.optimized.txt, Lucene Performance Test - with & > without hack.xls, lucene.34930.patch, yonik_indexwriter.diff > > > Note: I believe this to be the same situation with 1.4.3 as with SVN HEAD. > Analysis using hprof utility shows that during index creation with many > documents highlights that the CPU spends a large portion of it's time in > IndexWriter.maybeMergeSegments(), which seems to be a 'waste' compared with > other valuable CPU intensive operations such as tokenization etc. > Using the following test snippet to retrieve some rows from the db and create > an > index: > Analyzer a = new StandardAnalyzer(); > writer = new IndexWriter(indexDir, a, true); > writer.setMergeFactor(1000); > writer.setMaxBufferedDocs(10000); > writer.setUseCompoundFile(false); > connection = DriverManager.getConnection( > "jdbc:inetdae7:tower.aconex.com?database=<somedb>", "secret", > "squirrel"); > String sql = "select userid, userfirstname, userlastname, email from > userx"; > LOG.info("sql=" + sql); > Statement statement = connection.createStatement(); > statement.setFetchSize(5000); > LOG.info("Executing sql"); > ResultSet rs = statement.executeQuery(sql); > LOG.info("ResultSet retrieved"); > int row = 0; > LOG.info("Indexing users"); > long begin = System.currentTimeMillis(); > while (rs.next()) { > int userid = rs.getInt(1); > String firstname = rs.getString(2); > String lastname = rs.getString(3); > String email = rs.getString(4); > String fullName = firstname + " " + lastname; > Document doc = new Document(); > doc.add(Field.Keyword("userid", userid+"")); > doc.add(Field.Keyword("firstname", firstname.toLowerCase())); > doc.add(Field.Keyword("lastname", lastname.toLowerCase())); > doc.add(Field.Text("name", fullName.toLowerCase())); > doc.add(Field.Keyword("email", email.toLowerCase())); > writer.addDocument(doc); > row++; > if((row % 100)==0){ > LOG.info(row + " indexed"); > } > } > double end = System.currentTimeMillis(); > double diff = (end-begin)/1000; > double rate = row/diff; > LOG.info("rate:" +rate); > On my 1.5GHz PowerBook with 1.5Gb RAM and a 5400 RPM drive, my CPU is maxed > out, > and I end up getting a rate of indexing between 490-515 documents/second run > over 10 times in succession. > By applying a simple patch to IndexWriter (see attached shortly), which defers > the calling of maybeMergeSegments() so that it is only called every 2000 > times(an arbitrary figure), I appear to get a new rate of between 945-970 > documents/second.
