All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Closeable

public class ByteBufferDirectory
extends org.apache.lucene.store.Directory

A memory based directory that uses ByteBuffer in order to store the directory content.

The benefit of using ByteBuffer is the fact that it can be stored in "native" memory outside of the JVM heap, thus not incurring the GC overhead of large in memory index.

Each "file" is segmented into one or more byte buffers.

If constructed with ByteBufferAllocator, it allows to control the allocation and release of byte buffer. For example, custom implementations can include caching of byte buffers.
