We do this to prevent large file descriptor creation / overhead. I think we can have a second implementation that doesn't do that but writes directly. It should not be a big deal to implement this though. In-fact we should do that by default with the sep codec. Once I come back from vacation I can take a look and get this in for you. simonw > > Would be more efficient (for memory) to write its buffer as it goes ? > > Thank you > > Simon > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: java-user-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: java-user-h...@lucene.apache.org
