Jason Rutherglen commented on LUCENE-2312:
------------------------------------------

To clarify the above comment, DW's update doc method would acquire a mutex.  The flush bytes method would also acquire that mutex when it copies existing writeable bytes over to the readable bytes thing (pool?).

>    Affects Versions: 3.0.1

> In order to offer user's near realtime search, without incurring
> an indexing performance penalty, we can implement search on
> IndexWriter's RAM buffer. This is the buffer that is filled in
> RAM as documents are indexed. Currently the RAM buffer is
> flushed to the underlying directory (usually disk) before being
> made searchable. 
> Todays Lucene based NRT systems must incur the cost of merging
> segments, which can slow indexing. 
> Michael Busch has good suggestions regarding how to handle deletes using max doc ids.

> The area that isn't fully fleshed out is the terms dictionary,
> which needs to be sorted prior to queries executing. Currently
> IW implements a specialized hash table. Michael B has a
> suggestion here:
