All Implemented Interfaces:

Closeable, AutoCloseable

Direct Known Subclasses:

LogByteSizeMergePolicy, LogDocMergePolicy

public abstract class LogMergePolicy
extends MergePolicy

This class implements a MergePolicy that tries to merge segments into levels of exponentially increasing size, where each level has fewer segments than the value of the merge factor. Whenever extra segments (beyond the merge factor upper bound) are encountered, all segments within the level are merged. You can get or set the merge factor using getMergeFactor() and setMergeFactor(int) respectively.

This class is abstract and requires a subclass to define the size(org.apache.lucene.index.SegmentInfo) method which specifies how a segment's size is determined. LogDocMergePolicy is one subclass that measures size by document count in the segment. LogByteSizeMergePolicy is another subclass that measures size as the total byte size of the file(s) for the segment.

Field Detail

LEVEL_LOG_SPAN

public static final double LEVEL_LOG_SPAN

Defines the allowed range of log(size) for each level. A level is computed by taking the max segment log size, minus LEVEL_LOG_SPAN, and finding all segments falling within that range.

See Also:

Constant Field Values

DEFAULT_MERGE_FACTOR

public static final int DEFAULT_MERGE_FACTOR

Default merge factor, which is how many segments are merged at a time

See Also:

Constant Field Values

DEFAULT_MAX_MERGE_DOCS

public static final int DEFAULT_MAX_MERGE_DOCS

Default maximum segment size. A segment of this size or larger will never be merged. @see setMaxMergeDocs

See Also:

Constant Field Values

DEFAULT_NO_CFS_RATIO

public static final double DEFAULT_NO_CFS_RATIO

Default noCFSRatio. If a merge's size is >= 10% of the index, then we disable compound file for it.

getNoCFSRatio

public double getNoCFSRatio()

See Also:

setNoCFSRatio(double)

setNoCFSRatio

public void setNoCFSRatio(double noCFSRatio)

If a merged segment will be more than this percentage of the total size of the index, leave the segment as non-compound file even if compound file is enabled. Set to 1.0 to always use CFS regardless of merge size.

message

protected void message(String message)

getMergeFactor

public int getMergeFactor()

Returns the number of segments that are merged at once and also controls the total number of segments allowed to accumulate in the index.

setMergeFactor

public void setMergeFactor(int mergeFactor)

Determines how often segment indices are merged by addDocument(). With smaller values, less RAM is used while indexing, and searches are faster, but indexing speed is slower. With larger values, more RAM is used during indexing, and while searches is slower, indexing is faster. Thus larger values (> 10) are best for batch index creation, and smaller values (< 10) for indices that are interactively maintained.

useCompoundFile

public boolean useCompoundFile(SegmentInfos infos,
                      SegmentInfo mergedInfo)
                        throws IOException

Description copied from class: MergePolicy

Returns true if a new segment (regardless of its origin) should use the compound file format.

Specified by:

useCompoundFile in class MergePolicy

Throws:

IOException

setUseCompoundFile

public void setUseCompoundFile(boolean useCompoundFile)

Sets whether compound file format should be used for newly flushed and newly merged segments.

getUseCompoundFile

public boolean getUseCompoundFile()

Returns true if newly flushed and newly merge segments are written in compound file format. @see #setUseCompoundFile

setCalibrateSizeByDeletes

public void setCalibrateSizeByDeletes(boolean calibrateSizeByDeletes)

Sets whether the segment size should be calibrated by the number of deletes when choosing segments for merge.

getCalibrateSizeByDeletes

public boolean getCalibrateSizeByDeletes()

Returns true if the segment size should be calibrated by the number of deletes when choosing segments for merge.

               Map<SegmentInfo,Boolean> segmentsToMerge)
                    throws IOException

Throws:

isMerged

protected boolean isMerged(SegmentInfo info)
                    throws IOException

Returns true if this single info is already fully merged (has no pending norms or deletes, is in the same dir as the writer, and matches the current compound file setting

Throws:

IOException

findForcedMerges

public MergePolicy.MergeSpecification findForcedMerges(SegmentInfos infos,
                                              int maxNumSegments,
                                              Map<SegmentInfo,Boolean> segmentsToMerge)
                                                throws IOException

Returns the merges necessary to merge the index down to a specified number of segments. This respects the maxMergeSizeForForcedMerge setting. By default, and assuming maxNumSegments=1, only one segment will be left in the index, where that segment has no deletions pending nor separate norms, and it is in compound file format if the current useCompoundFile setting is true. This method returns multiple merges (mergeFactor at a time) so the MergeScheduler in use may make use of concurrency.

Specified by:

findForcedMerges in class MergePolicy

Parameters:

infos - the total set of segments in the index

maxNumSegments - requested maximum number of segments in the index (currently this is always 1)

segmentsToMerge - contains the specific SegmentInfo instances that must be merged away. This may be a subset of all SegmentInfos. If the value is True for a given SegmentInfo, that means this segment was an original segment present in the to-be-merged index; else, it was a segment produced by a cascaded merge.

Throws:

IOException

findForcedDeletesMerges

public MergePolicy.MergeSpecification findForcedDeletesMerges(SegmentInfos segmentInfos)
                                                       throws CorruptIndexException,
                                                              IOException

Finds merges necessary to force-merge all deletes from the index. We simply merge adjacent segments that have deletes, up to mergeFactor at a time.

Specified by:

findForcedDeletesMerges in class MergePolicy

Parameters:

segmentInfos - the total set of segments in the index

Throws:

CorruptIndexException

IOException

findMerges

public MergePolicy.MergeSpecification findMerges(SegmentInfos infos)
                                          throws IOException

Checks if any merges are now necessary and returns a MergePolicy.MergeSpecification if so. A merge is necessary when there are more than setMergeFactor(int) segments at a given level. When multiple levels have too many segments, this method will return multiple merges, allowing the MergeScheduler to use concurrency.

Specified by:

findMerges in class MergePolicy

Parameters:

infos - the total set of segments in the index

Throws:

IOException

setMaxMergeDocs

public void setMaxMergeDocs(int maxMergeDocs)

Determines the largest segment (measured by document count) that may be merged with other segments. Small values (e.g., less than 10,000) are best for interactive indexing, as this limits the length of pauses while indexing to a few seconds. Larger values are best for batched indexing and speedier searches.

The default value is Integer.MAX_VALUE.

The default merge policy (LogByteSizeMergePolicy) also allows you to set this limit by net size (in MB) of the segment, using LogByteSizeMergePolicy.setMaxMergeMB(double).

getMaxMergeDocs

public int getMaxMergeDocs()

Returns the largest segment (measured by document count) that may be merged with other segments.
