[jira] [Commented] (LUCENE-5678) Investigate to use FileoutputStream instead of RandomAccessFile in FSIndexOutput

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-5678?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14000867#comment-14000867 ]

> We no longer allow seeking in IndexOutput, so there is no need to use RandomAccessFile. We can change this with a < 1 KiB patch.
> Further improvements would be to merge this with OutputStreamIndexOutput, so we get many simplifications.
> There is also no reason anymore to separate DataOutput from IndexOutput. The only additional thing is IndexOutput#getFilePointer(), which is handled by  an internal counter (does not use getFilePointer of the underlying RAF) and checksums.
