Thomas Mueller commented on OAK-5192:
-------------------------------------
> Also with recent changes in OakDirectory files should not be getting inlined
> so the growth being seen here is purely due to blobId values.
Maybe this is not working as expected? 48'047'720 bytes for _just_ the lucene
index, if all of that is blobIds, is a _lot_ of blobIds.
> Change the chunk size from 1MB to 10MB and see its impact
> So to represent 1GB file we would be using ~50KB of space in NodeStore
> have an OakDirectory implementation which does not chunk at all and streams
> the complete binary in one piece
50 KB is just 0.005% of 1 GB. So you can save 0.005% of disk space with that,
right? It doesn't sound like this would solve the problem, which is "Reduce
Lucene related growth of _repository_ size". This is _both_ datastore and
nodestore. This would just reduce the nodestore size, but have only a tiny
impact on repository size.
I still think that following options will have a much bigger impact:
* try to store the index less often in the repository (only store once per
minute)
* change the merge policy
Another option might be to convert some of the Lucene indexes to asynchronous
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.
