[jira] [Commented] (SOLR-13898) Non-atomic use of SolrCache get / put

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-13898?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16968661#comment-16968661 ] 

Andrzej Bialecki commented on SOLR-13898:
-----------------------------------------

Initial patch:
* I added {{SolrCache.computeIfAbsent}} method and implemented it in each subclass.
* {{UninvertedField}} and {{SolrDocumentFetcher}} (plus a few other minor use cases) have been changed to use {{computeIfAbsent}}. However, the way caching is used in {{SolrIndexSearcher}} was too scary for me to touch ... so this still needs to be modified.
* I'd like to add some performance tests to see how the hit ratio is affected by concurrent initialization when using get / put vs. computeIfAbsent.

All existing tests are passing.

> As pointed out by [~ben.manes] in SOLR-13817 Solr code base in many key places uses a similar pattern of non-atomic get / put calls to SolrCache-s. In multi-threaded environment this leads to cache misses and additional unnecessary computations when competing threads both discover a missing value, non-atomically compute it and update the cache.
> Some of these places are known performance bottlenecks where efficient caching is especially important, such as {{SolrIndexSearcher}}, {{SolrDocumentFetcher}}, {{UninvertedField}} and join queries .
> I propose to add {{SolrCache.computeIfAbsent(key, mappingFunction)}} that will atomically retrieve existing values or compute and update the cache. This will require also changing how the {{SolrCache.get(...)}} is used in many components.
