Chuck Williams commented on LUCENE-1052:
----------------------------------------
Michael, thanks for creating an excellent production version of this idea and
committing it!
I'd like to take it one step further to eliminate the need to call
IndexReader.setTermInfosIndexDivisor up front. The idea is to instead specify
a maximum number of index terms to cache in memory. This could then allow
TermInfosReader to set indexDivisor automatically to the smallest value that
yields a cache size less than the maximum.
This seems a simple and extremely useful extension. Unfortunately, I'm still
on an older Lucene, but will post my update. If you like this idea, you may
want to just add the feature directly to your implementation in the trunk.

> Project: Lucene - Java

> The termIndexInterval, set during indexing time, let's you tradeoff
> how much RAM is used by a reader to load the indexed terms vs cost of
> seeking to the specific term you want to load.
> But the downside is you must set it at indexing time.
> This issue adds an indexDivisor to TermInfosReader so that on opening
> a reader you could further sub-sample the the termIndexInterval to use
> less RAM. EG a setting of 2 means every 2 * termIndexInterval is
> loaded into RAM.
> This is particularly useful if your index has a great many terms (eg
> you accidentally indexed binary terms).
