[jira] Reopened: (LUCENE-2650) improve windows defaults in
FSDirectory
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2650?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Robert Muir reopened LUCENE-2650:
---------------------------------
I'd like to reopen this issue to propose backporting the defaults change (for 64-bit windows) to 3.x
Its been a few months now with this default in trunk and there haven't been any reported problems.
Additionally our tests are much better now (e.g. we test all directory impls).

> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Store
> Affects Versions: 4.0
> Reporter: Robert Muir

> Fix For: 3.1, 4.0

> Currently windows defaults to SimpleFSDirectory, but this is a problem due to the synchronization.
> I have been benchmarking queries *sequentially* and was pretty surprised at how much faster
> MMapDirectory is, for example for cases that do many seeks.
> I think we should change the defaults for windows as such:
> if (WINDOWS and UNMAP_SUPPORTED and 64-bit)
> use MMapDirectory
> else
> use SimpleFSDirectory
> I think we should just consider doing this for 4.0 only and see how it goes.
