Jason Rutherglen commented on LUCENE-2312:
------------------------------------------

A few notes so far:

* IW flush could become thread dependent (eg, it'll only flush
for the current doc writer) or maybe it should flush all doc
writers? Close will shut down and flush all doc writers.

* A new term will first check the hash table for existence (as
currently), if it's not in the term hash table only then will it
be added to the btree (btw, binary search is O(log N) on
average?) This way we're avoiding the somewhat costlier btree
existence check per token.

* The algorithm for flushing doc writers based on RAM
consumption can simply be, on exceed, flush the doc writer
consuming the most RAM? 

* I gutted the PerThread classes, then realized, it's all too
intertwined. I'd rather get *something* working, than spend an
excessive amount of time rearranging code that already works.

>          Issue Type: New Feature
>          Components: Search
>    Affects Versions: 3.0.1

> In order to offer user's near realtime search, without incurring
> an indexing performance penalty, we can implement search on
> IndexWriter's RAM buffer. This is the buffer that is filled in
> RAM as documents are indexed. Currently the RAM buffer is
> flushed to the underlying directory (usually disk) before being
> made searchable. 
> Todays Lucene based NRT systems must incur the cost of merging
> segments, which can slow indexing. 
> Michael Busch has good suggestions regarding how to handle deletes using max 
> doc ids.

> The area that isn't fully fleshed out is the terms dictionary,
> which needs to be sorted prior to queries executing. Currently
> IW implements a specialized hash table. Michael B has a
> suggestion here:
