[jira] Updated: (LUCY-61) RAMFile
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCY-61?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Marvin Humphrey updated LUCY-61:
--------------------------------
Attachment: RAMFile.c
RAMFile.bp
The Lucene implementation of RAMFile is backed by an array of buffers; in
contrast, this implementation uses a single buffer. This probably makes it
less efficient when writing large files, because reallocating a single buffer
as the file grows is less efficient than adding new, small buffers.
However, to simulate memory mapping of the entire file, we need to have a
single, unified buffer at read-time.
It is possible to improve on this implementation by adding a multi-buffer set
up for use during write-time, which then would be consolidated into a single
buffer some time between the finish of writing and the first read. For now,
though, the present, simple implementation will do.
