Shai Erera commented on LUCENE-1591:
------------------------------------

argh, you bit me here - I planned to do so myself :)
for some reason their OutputStream has the file headers commented out with a 
comment saying "this is added by the caller", however their InputStream reads 
them ... strange. Anyway, once that's fixed and we upgrade to a proper jar, the 
unit test I am working on now will fail, and it will remind us to remove 
writing the headers in WriteLineDocTask.

Mike - I am working on the unit test as well as defaulting by extension. I hope 
a patch will be available sometime later today.

> bzip compression can aid the benchmark package by not requiring extracting 
> bzip files (such as enwiki) in order to index them. The plan is to add a 
> config parameter bzip.compression=true/false and in the relevant tasks either 
> decompress the input file or compress the output file using the bzip streams.
> It will add a dependency on ant.jar which contains two classes similar to 
> GZIPOutputStream and GZIPInputStream which compress/decompress files using 
> the bzip algorithm.
> bzip is known to be superior in its compression performance to the gzip 
> algorithm (~20% better compression), although it does the 
> compression/decompression a bit slower.
> I wil post a patch which adds this parameter and implement it in 
> LineDocMaker, EnwikiDocMaker and WriteLineDoc task. Maybe even add the 
> capability to DocMaker or some of the super classes, so it can be inherited 
> by all sub-classes.
