The zap DictionaryIterator Next() was incorrectly returning the
postingsList offset as the term count. As part of this, refactored
out a PostingsList.read() helper method.
Also added more merge unit test scenarios, including merging a segment
for a few rounds to see if there are differences before/after merging.
Instead of sorting docNum keys from a hashmap, this change instead
iterates from docNum 0 to N and uses an array instead of hashmap.
The array is also reused across outer loop iterations.
This optimizes for when there's a lot of structural similarity between
docs, where many/most docs have the same fields. i.e., beers,
breweries. If every doc has completely different fields, then this
change might produce worse behavior compared to the previous sparse
hashmap approach.
Instead of allocating a govarint.U64Base128Encoder in the inner loop,
allocate it just once on the outside, as it appears that it's just a
thin wrapper around binary.PutUvarint().
The zap SegmentBase struct is a refactoring of the zap Segment into
the subset of fields that are needed for read-only ops, without any
persistence related info. This allows us to use zap's optimized data
encoding as scorch's in-memory segments.
The zap Segment struct now embeds a zap SegmentBase struct, and layers
on persistence. Both the zap Segment and zap SegmentBase implement
scorch's Segment interface.
+ Account for all the overhead incurred from the data structures
within mem.Segment and zap.Segment.
- SizeOfMap = 8
- SizeOfPointer = 8
- SizeOfSlice = 24
- SizeOfString = 16
+ Include overhead from certain new fields as well.
This change preallocates more of the backing arrays for Locfields,
Locstarts, Locends, Locpos, Locaaraypos sub-slices of a scorch mem
segment.
On small bleve-blast tests (50K wiki docs) on a dev macbook, scorch
indexing throughput seems to improve from 15MB/sec to 20MB/sec after
the recent series of preallocation changes.
The scorch mem segment build phase uses the append() idiom to populate
various slices that are keyed by postings list id's. These slices
include...
* Postings
* PostingsLocs
* Freqs
* Norms
* Locfields
* Locstarts
* Locends
* Locpos
* Locarraypos
This change introduces an initialization step that preallocates those
slices up-front, by assigning postings list id's to terms up-front.
This change also has an additional effect of simplifying the
processDocument() logic to no longer have to worry about a first-time
initialization case, removing some duplicate'ish code.
The first time through, startNumFields should be 0, where there ought
to be more optimization assuming later docs have similar fields as the
first doc.
-VisitableDocValueFields API for persisted DV field list
-making dv configs overridable at field level
-enabling on the fly/runtime un inverting of doc values
-few UT updates
zap command-line tool added to main bleve command-line tool
this required physical relocation due to the vendoring used
only on the bleve command-line tool (unforseen limitation)
a new scorch command-line tool has also been introduced
and for the same reasons it is physically store under
the top-level bleve command-line tool as well
inserted to the list of dv enabled fields list -
DocValueFields in mem segment.
Moved back to the original type `DocValueFields map[uint16]bool`
for easy look up to check whether the fieldID is
configured for dv storage.
+ Track memory usage at a segment level
+ Add a new scorch API: MemoryUsed()
- Aggregate the memory consumption across
segments when API is invoked.
+ TODO:
- Revisit the second iteration if it can be gotten
rid off, and the size accounted for during the first
run while building an in-mem segment.
- Accounting for pointer and slice overhead.
docValues are persisted along with the index,
in a columnar fashion per field with variable
sized chunking for quick look up.
-naive chunk level caching is added per field
-data part inside a chunk is snappy compressed
-metaHeader inside the chunk index the dv values
inside the uncompressed data part
-all the fields are docValue persisted in this iteration
With this change, there are no more memory allocations in the calls to
PostingsIterator.Next() in the micro benchmarks of bleve-query. On a
dev macbook, on an index of 50K wikipedia docs, using high frequency
search of "text:date"...
400 qps - upsidedown/moss
565 qps - scorch before
680 qps - scorch after
