Mark Miller commented on LUCENE-831:
------------------------------------
Right, I think its used in MultiSearcher and Parallel-MultSearcher and I
believe its because you cannot compare simple ord arrays across Searchers and
so you need the original sort term?
I havn't been able to come up with anything that would be very efficient for
merging a StringIndex, but I have not thought to much about it yet. Anyone out
there have any ideas? Fastest way to merge two String[], each with an int[]
indexing into the String[]? Is there a *really* fast way?
I agree that it would be nice to skip the String[] if a MultiSearcher was not
being used.
I'll keep playing with it
> Complete overhaul of FieldCache API/Implementation
> --------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: LUCENE-831
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-831
> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Search
> Reporter: Hoss Man
> Assignee: Michael Busch
> Fix For: 2.4
>
> Attachments: fieldcache-overhaul.032208.diff,
> fieldcache-overhaul.diff, fieldcache-overhaul.diff
>
>
> Motivation:
> 1) Complete overhaul the API/implementation of "FieldCache" type things...
> a) eliminate global static map keyed on IndexReader (thus
> eliminating synch block between completley independent IndexReaders)
> b) allow more customization of cache management (ie: use
> expiration/replacement strategies, disk backed caches, etc)
> c) allow people to define custom cache data logic (ie: custom
> parsers, complex datatypes, etc... anything tied to a reader)
> d) allow people to inspect what's in a cache (list of CacheKeys) for
> an IndexReader so a new IndexReader can be likewise warmed.
> e) Lend support for smarter cache management if/when
> IndexReader.reopen is added (merging of cached data from subReaders).
> 2) Provide backwards compatibility to support existing FieldCache API with
> the new implementation, so there is no redundent caching as client code
> migrades to new API.
