Rows content is an implementation detail of bleve index and may change
in the future. That said, they also contains information valuable to
assess the quality of the index or understand its performances. So, as
long as we agree that type asserting rows should only be done if you
know what you are doing and are ready to deal with future changes, I see
no reason to hide the row fields from external packages.
Fix#268
It boils down to:
1. client sends some work and a notification channel to a single worker,
then waits.
2. worker processes the work
3. worker sends the result to the client using the notification channel
I do not see any problem with this, even with unbuffered channels.
this lays the foundation for supporting the new firestorm
indexing scheme. i'm merging these changes ahead of
the rest of the firestorm branch so i can continue
to make changes to the analysis pipeline in parallel
the logic for reading the docID from the keys
in this row relies on the keys NEVER containing
the byte separator character (0xff), this is OK
as we require that all keys be valid utf-8
however, it turns out that in the case where this
rule was violated, we would panic, because we
return nil, nil and later try to print the doc id
in some limited cases we can detect unsafe usage
in these cases, do not trip over ourselves and panic
instead return a strongly typed error upside_down.UnsafeBatchUseDetected
also, introduced Batch.Reset() to allow batch reuse
this is currently still experimental
closes#195
trying to be clever, we reused the memory allocated for the left
operand when doing partial merges
this had been tested to be safe, in general. however, the
implementation was then written such that we always reused
globally defined operands, this meant that we mutated
the operands which were intended to always represent
+1/-1
this then cascades quickly to making increment/decrement
values much larger/smaller than they should be
related to #197
refactor to share code in emulated batch
refactor to share code in emulated merge
refactor index kvstore benchmarks to share more code
refactor index kvstore benchmarks to be more repeatable
