[jira] [Commented] (LUCENE-9694) New tool for creating a deterministic index

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-9694?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17270495#comment-17270495 ] 

Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-9694:
--------------------------------------------

Woooohooo!  This will be really helpful for benchmarking, ensuring we can reproduce the same segment geometry even upon re-indexing, so we can compare search performance on a multi-segmented index even when testing changes that impact the index.  Thank you [~zhai7631].

> Lucene's index is segmented, and sometimes number of segments and documents arrangement greatly impact performance.
> Given a stable index sort, our team create a tool that records document arrangement (called index map) of an index and rearrange another index (consists of same documents) into the same structure (segment num, and documents included in each segment).
> This tool could be also used in lucene benchmarks for a faster deterministic index construction (if I understand correctly lucene benchmark is using a single thread manner to achieve this).

> We've already had some discussion in email
> [https://markmail.org/message/lbtdntclpnocmfuf]
> And I've implemented the first method, using {{IndexWriter.addIndexes}} and a customized {{FilteredCodecReader}} to achieve the goal. The index construction time is about 25min and time executing this tool is about 10min.
