Fuad Efendi commented on SOLR-665: ---------------------------------- {quote}Simply replacing synchronized with java.util.concurrent.locks doesn't increase performance. There needs to be a specific strategy for employing these locks in a way that makes sense.{quote} I absolutely agree... ConcurrentHashMap is based on some level of acceptable safety, for specific tasks only bq. They do not throw ConcurrentModificationException. However, iterators are designed to be used by only one thread at a time. We can try to design specific caches directly implementing Map or ConcurrentMap interfaces. We should define 'safety' levels (for instance, _null_ is not a problem if cache already contains this object added by another thread concurrently; cache elements are explicitly immutable objects; and etc.) FIFO looks simplest and it _does_ work indeed; for LRU we need reordering for each get(), _OR_ we can make it weaker using weak (approximate) reordering somehow... > FIFO Cache (Unsynchronized): 9x times performance boost > ------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SOLR-665 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-665 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 1.3 > Environment: JRockit R27 (Java 6) > Reporter: Fuad Efendi > Attachments: FIFOCache.java > > Original Estimate: 672h > Remaining Estimate: 672h > > Attached is modified version of LRUCache where > 1. map = new LinkedHashMap(initialSize, 0.75f, false) - so that > "reordering"/true (performance bottleneck of LRU) is replaced to > "insertion-order"/false (so that it became FIFO) > 2.
