Jake Mannix commented on LUCENE-1997:
-------------------------------------
The current concern is to do with the memory? I'm more concerned with the
weird "java ghosts" that are flying around, sometimes swaying results by
20-40%... the memory could only be an issue on a setup with hundreds of
segments and sorting the top 1000 values (do we really try to optimize for this
performance case?). In the normal case (no more than tens of segments, and the
top 10 or 100 hits), we're talking about what, 100-1000 PQ entries?

> Spinoff from recent "lucene 2.9 sorting algorithm" thread on java-dev,
> where a simpler (non-segment-based) comparator API is proposed that
> gathers results into multiple PQs (one per segment) and then merges
> them in the end.
> I started from John's multi-PQ code and worked it into
> contrib/benchmark so that we could run perf tests. Then I generified
> the Python script I use for running search benchmarks (in
> contrib/benchmark/sortBench.py).
> The script first creates indexes with 1M docs (based on
> SortableSingleDocSource, and based on wikipedia, if available). Then
> it runs various combinations:
> * Index with 20 balanced segments vs index with the "normal" log
> segment size
> * Queries with different numbers of hits (only for wikipedia index)
> * Different top N
> * Different sorts (by title, for wikipedia, and by random string,
> random int, and country for the random index)
> For each test, 7 search rounds are run and the best QPS is kept. The
> script runs singlePQ then multiPQ, and records the resulting best QPS
> for each and produces table (in Jira format) as output.
