Tim Smith commented on LUCENE-2324: ----------------------------------- bq. But... could we allow an add/updateDocument call to express this affinity, explicitly? i would love to be able to explicitly define a "segment" affinity for documents i'm feeding this would then allow me to say: all docs from table a has affinity 1 all docs from table b has affinity 2 this would ideally result in indexing documents from each table into a different segment (obviously, i would then need to be able to have segment merging be affinity aware so optimize/merging would only merge segments that share an affinity) > Per thread DocumentsWriters that write their own private segments > ----------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-2324 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2324 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Index > Reporter: Michael Busch > Assignee: Michael Busch > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 3.1 > > Attachments: lucene-2324.patch, LUCENE-2324.patch > > > See LUCENE-2293 for motivation and more details. > I'm copying here Mike's summary he posted on 2293: > Change the approach for how we buffer in RAM to a more isolated > approach, whereby IW has N fully independent RAM segments > in-process and when a doc needs to be indexed it's added to one of > them. Each segment would also write its own doc stores and > "normal" segment merging (not the inefficient merge we now do on > flush) would merge them. This should be a good simplification in > the chain (eg maybe we can remove the *PerThread classes). The > segments can flush independently, letting us make much better > concurrent use of IO & CPU. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: java-dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: java-dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
