Class ConcurrentMergeScheduler

java.lang.Object

org.apache.lucene.index.MergeScheduler

org.apache.lucene.index.ConcurrentMergeScheduler

All Implemented Interfaces:

Closeable

public class ConcurrentMergeScheduler
extends MergeScheduler

A MergeScheduler that runs each merge using a separate thread.

Specify the max number of threads that may run at once with setMaxThreadCount(int).

Separately specify the maximum number of simultaneous merges with setMaxMergeCount(int). If the number of merges exceeds the max number of threads then the largest merges are paused until one of the smaller merges completes.

If more than getMaxMergeCount() merges are requested then this class will forcefully throttle the incoming threads by pausing until one more more merges complete.

Field Detail

mergeThreads

protected List<ConcurrentMergeScheduler.MergeThread> mergeThreads

List of currently active ConcurrentMergeScheduler.MergeThreads.

dir

protected Directory dir

Directory that holds the index.

writer

protected IndexWriter writer

IndexWriter that owns this instance.

mergeThreadCount

protected int mergeThreadCount

How many ConcurrentMergeScheduler.MergeThreads have kicked off (this is use to name them).

compareByMergeDocCount

protected static final Comparator<ConcurrentMergeScheduler.MergeThread> compareByMergeDocCount

Sorts ConcurrentMergeScheduler.MergeThreads; larger merges come first.

Constructor Detail

ConcurrentMergeScheduler

public ConcurrentMergeScheduler()

Sole constructor, with all settings set to default values.

Method Detail

setMaxThreadCount

public void setMaxThreadCount(int count)

Sets the max # simultaneous merge threads that should be running at once. This must be <= setMaxMergeCount(int).

getMaxThreadCount

public int getMaxThreadCount()

Returns maxThreadCount.

See Also:

setMaxThreadCount(int)

setMaxMergeCount

public void setMaxMergeCount(int count)

Sets the max # simultaneous merges that are allowed. If a merge is necessary yet we already have this many threads running, the incoming thread (that is calling add/updateDocument) will block until a merge thread has completed. Note that we will only run the smallest setMaxThreadCount(int) merges at a time.

getMaxMergeCount

public int getMaxMergeCount()

See setMaxMergeCount(int).

getMergeThreadPriority

public int getMergeThreadPriority()

Return the priority that merge threads run at. By default the priority is 1 plus the priority of (ie, slightly higher priority than) the first thread that calls merge.

setMergeThreadPriority

public void setMergeThreadPriority(int pri)

Set the base priority that merge threads run at. Note that CMS may increase priority of some merge threads beyond this base priority. It's best not to set this any higher than Thread.MAX_PRIORITY-maxThreadCount, so that CMS has room to set relative priority among threads.

updateMergeThreads

protected void updateMergeThreads()

Called whenever the running merges have changed, to pause & unpause threads. This method sorts the merge threads by their merge size in descending order and then pauses/unpauses threads from first to last -- that way, smaller merges are guaranteed to run before larger ones.

verbose

protected boolean verbose()

Returns true if verbosing is enabled. This method is usually used in conjunction with message(String), like that:

 if (verbose()) {
   message("your message");
 }
 

message

protected void message(String message)

Outputs the given message - this method assumes verbose() was called and returned true.

close

public void close()

Description copied from class: MergeScheduler

Close this MergeScheduler.

Specified by:

close in interface Closeable

Specified by:

close in class MergeScheduler

sync

public void sync()

Wait for any running merge threads to finish. This call is not interruptible as used by close().

mergeThreadCount

protected int mergeThreadCount()

Returns the number of merge threads that are alive. Note that this number is ≤ mergeThreads size.

merge

public void merge(IndexWriter writer)
           throws IOException

Description copied from class: MergeScheduler

Run the merges provided by IndexWriter.getNextMerge().

Specified by:

merge in class MergeScheduler

Throws:

IOException

doMerge

protected void doMerge(MergePolicy.OneMerge merge)
                throws IOException

Does the actual merge, by calling IndexWriter.merge(org.apache.lucene.index.MergePolicy.OneMerge)

Throws:

IOException

getMergeThread

protected ConcurrentMergeScheduler.MergeThread getMergeThread(IndexWriter writer,
                                                  MergePolicy.OneMerge merge)
                                                       throws IOException

Create and return a new MergeThread

Throws:

IOException

handleMergeException

protected void handleMergeException(Throwable exc)

Called when an exception is hit in a background merge thread

toString

public String toString()

Overrides:
