Hi Lucene hackers.
I was looking into lucene internals and came across ByteBlockPool class. In
that class I see following static final array:
public final static int[] LEVEL_SIZE_ARRAY = {5, 14, 20, 30, 40, 40, 80,
80, 120, 200};
why and how these numbers are selected?
In addition In the #allocSlice() method I see the following snippet:
final int level = slice[upto] & 15;
final int newLevel = NEXT_LEVEL_ARRAY[level];
final int newSize = LEVEL_SIZE_ARRAY[newLevel];
but NEXT_LEVEL_ARRAY size is upto 10. How can we guarantee that level
variable value (slice[upto] & 15) will not exceed the array size and won't
throw array out of index exception? Value of this (slice[upto] & 15) can go
upto 15.
Thanks.
