When we use NIOFSDirectory, lucene internally uses buffering via BufferedIndexInput (1KB etc...) while reading from the file..
However, for MmapDirectory (ByteBufferIndexInput) there is no such buffering & data is read from the mapped bytes directly... Will it be too much of a performance drag if I wrap ByteBufferIndexInput with a BufferedIndex? I mean like, is it an anti-pattern of zero-copy reads etc... Any help is much appreciated -- Ravi
