Ryan McKinley commented on LUCENE-2665:
---------------------------------------

While we are thinking about it... perhaps the best option is to add a Cache to the IndexReader itself.

This would be nice since it would would drop the WeakHashMap<IndexReader> that is used all over.  I just like hard references better!

The one (ok maybe there are more) hitch I can think of is that some Cache instances don't care about deleted docs (FieldCache) and others do.  Perhaps the EntryCreator knows and the Cache coud behave differently... or am i getting ahead of myself!

> The existing FieldCache implementation is very rigid and does not allow much flexibility.  In trying to implement simple features, it points to much larger structural problems.
> This patch aims to take a fresh approach to how we work with the FieldCache.
