I'd like to commit LUCENE-843.
+1 Awesome job!
The patch has gone through a number of iterations but the final version that's there now (take9) is quite a bit cleaner & simpler than the ones leading up to it and I believe ready. It provides solid indexing performance gains (between 2X-8X), but, it is somewhat more complex than the current "single doc per segment" approach and it does introduce a change to the index format (only when autoCommit=false) whereby multiple segments can share a single set of term vector & stored fields files.
I'll miss the elegant single doc approach that's been with us for so long, but one can't ignore the magnitude of these performance gains.
Given that it's such a big change I think (?) it's appropriate to ask for a vote (only PMC member votes are binding) to make sure we have consensus that this is net/net a good change for Lucene.
IMO, there's no need to be that formal. A simple vote on the dev list (non-committer votes are welcome and carry weight too), and if there's a consensus then everything is good. -Yonik --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
