Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-2205:
--------------------------------------------
I don't think anyone's run specific numbers on the terms dict -- that'd be
great if you get a chance to do so!
Note that we plan also to cutover those arrays to packed ints (LUCENE-1990)
since eg using a long for fileOffset and blockPointer is very wasteful in
general. Even a short to record the length of each term is wasteful.
> Rework of the TermInfosReader class to remove the Terms[], TermInfos[], and
> the index pointer long[] and create a more memory efficient data structure.

> Key: LUCENE-2205
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2205
> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Environment: Java5
> Reporter: Aaron McCurry
> Attachments: patch-final.txt, RandomAccessTest.java, rawoutput.txt
>
>
> Basically packing those three arrays into a byte array with an int array as
> an index offset.
> The performance benefits are stagering on my test index (of size 6.2 GB, with
> ~1,000,000 documents and ~175,000,000 terms), the memory needed to load the
> terminfos into memory were reduced to 17% of there original size. From 291.5
> MB to 49.7 MB. The random access speed has been made better by 1-2%, load
> time of the segments are ~40% faster as well, and full GC's on my JVM were
> made 7 times faster.
> I have already performed the work and am offering this code as a patch.
> Currently all test in the trunk pass with this new code enabled. I did write
> a system property switch to allow for the original implementation to be used
> as well.
> -Dorg.apache.lucene.index.TermInfosReader=default or small
> I have also written a blog about this patch here is the link.
