Marvin Humphrey commented on LUCENE-2213:
-----------------------------------------

Algorithm looks good.  The addition of the mandatory second argument works
well. Nice work.

Looks like there's a typo in the currently unused constant "NUM_BYTES_DOUBLT".

As for the tests... Testing that optimizations like these are working properly
is a pain, so I understand why you zapped 'em.  Sometimes inequality or
proportional testing can work in these situations:

{code}
  assertTrue(t.termBuffer().length > t.termLength());
{code}

That assertion wouldn't always hold true for this object, because sometimes
the term will fill the whole array.  And in a perfect world, you'd want to test 
that 
each and every array growth happens as expected -- but that's not practical.  
Still, in my opinion, a fragile, imperfect test in this situation is OK.

> Spinoff from java-dev thread "Dynamic array reallocation algorithms" started 
> on Jan 12, 2010.
> Here's what I did:
>   * Keep the +3 for small sizes
>   * Added 2nd arg = number of bytes per element.
>   * Round up to 4 or 8 byte boundary (if it's 32 or 64 bit JRE respectively)
>   * Still grow by 1/8th
>   * If 0 is passed in, return 0 back
> I also had to remove some asserts in tests that were checking the actual 
> values returned by this method -- I don't think we should test that (it's an 
> impl. detail).
