Previously, the firestorm.Batch() would notify the lookuper goroutine
on a document by document basis. If the lookuper input channel became
full, then that would block the firestorm.Batch() operation.
With this change, lookuper is notified once, with a "batch" that is an
[]*InFlightItem.
This change also reuses that same []*InFlightItem to invoke the
compensator.MutateBatch().
This also has the advantage of only converting the docID's from string
to []byte just once, outside of the lock that's used by the
compensator.
Micro-benchmark of this change with null-firestorm bleve-blast does
not show large impact, neither degradation or improvement.
After this change, with null kvstore micro-benchmark...
GOMAXPROCS=8 ./bleve-blast -source=../../tmp/enwiki.txt \
-count=100000 -numAnalyzers=8 -numIndexers=8 \
-config=../../configs/null-firestorm.json -batch=100
Then TermFreqRow key and value methods dissapear as large boxes from
the cpu profile graphs.
The field cache is expected to be the authority on which field
names are identified by which identifier. This code was
optimized for the most common case in which fields already
exist. However, if we deterimine the field is missing with
the read lock (shared), we incorrectly immediately proceed
to create a new row with the write lock (exclusive). The
problem is that multiple goroutines might have come to
the same conclusion, and they all proceed to add rows. The two
choices were to do the whole operation with the write lock, or
recheck the value again with the write lock. We have chosen
to repeat the check inside the write-lock, as this optimizes
for what we believe to be the most common case, in which most
fields will already exist.
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
Two issues:
- Seeking before i.start and iterating returned keys before i.start
- Seeking after the store last key did not invalidate the iterator and
could cause infinite loops.
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.
Use this option when rebuilding indexes from scratch. In my small case
(~17000 json documents), it reduces indexing from 520s to 250s.
I did not add any test, short of forced indexing termination it only
has performance effects, which are hard to test. And unknown options are
currently ignored.

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
also changed over to mschoch fork of goleveldb (temporary)
the change to my fork is pending some read-only issues described
here: https://github.com/syndtr/goleveldb/issues/111
hopefully we can find a path forward, and get that addressed upstream
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 boltdb, long readers *MAY* block a writer. in particular if
the write requires additional allocation, it must acquire a lock
already held by the reader. in general this is not a problem
for bleve (though it can affect performance in some cases), but
it is a problem for the reader isolation test. this commit
adds a hack to try and avoid the need for additional allocation
closes#208
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
