Thomas Mueller commented on OAK-5192:
-------------------------------------
An alternative to changing the merge policy might be to use NRT indexes, so
that the index in the repository is updated much less frequently, for example
every 5 minutes. See also the [comment
OAK-2808|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-2808?focusedCommentId=15994345&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-15994345].
Another alternative is to use asynchronous property indexes. It would be
interesting to know the relative size / growth comparing asynchronous property
indexes vs. asynchronous Lucene property indexes.

> I observed Lucene indexing contributing to up to 99% of repository growth.
> While the size of the index itself is well inside reasonable bounds, the
> overall turnover of data being written and removed again can be as much as
> 99%.
> In the case of the TarMK this negatively impacts overall system performance
> due to fast growing number of tar files / segments, bad locality of
> reference, cache misses/thrashing when looking up segments and vastly
> prolonged garbage collection cycles.
