[jira] Commented: (LUCENE-2779) Use ReadWriteLock in RAMDirectory

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2779?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12935812#action_12935812 ] 

Shai Erera commented on LUCENE-2779:
------------------------------------

Perhaps we can eliminate synchronization entirely by using ConcurrentHashMap - I'll check that too.

> RAMDirectory synchronizes on its instance in many places to protect access to map of RAMFiles, in addition to updating the sizeInBytes member. In many places the sync is done for 'read' purposes, while only in few places we need 'write' access. So I think ReadWriteLock can be useful.
> Also, syncing around sizeInBytes is unnecessary IMO, since it's an AtomicLong ...
> I'll post a patch shortly.
