Using a Reentrant lock instead of the intrinsic synchronization lock
permits limiting the blocking time to acquire a lock.
Useful on a very busy Cache concurrently accessed by many threads : when
the time to acquire a lock is too high, getting/storing content on the
cache becomes inefficient, and it is then better to fall back to loading
remote resources.
Illustrated by the CacheTest stress test and some traces reported in
mantis 751 ( http://mantis.tokeek.de/view.php?id=751 )
to support the new time parser and search functions in YaCy a high
precision detection of date and time on the day is necessary. That
requires that the time zone of the document content and the time zone of
the user, doing a search, is detected. The time zone of the search
request is done automatically using the browsers time zone offset which
is delivered to the search request automatically and invisible to the
user. The time zone for the content of web pages cannot be detected
automatically and must be an attribute of crawl starts. The advanced
crawl start now provides an input field to set the time zone in minutes
as an offset number. All parsers must get a time zone offset passed, so
this required the change of the parser java api. A lot of other changes
had been made which corrects the wrong handling of dates in YaCy which
was to add a correction based on the time zone of the server. Now no
correction is added and all dates in YaCy are UTC/GMT time zone, a
normalized time zone for all peers.
thread pools will flush their cached (dead) threads after 60 seconds.
This will cause that YaCy now runs constantly withl about 50 threads,
about 100 at peak times. Previously, about 400 threads had been cached
and kept in a hibernation state, which caused that the numproc counter
in /proc/user_beancounters (exists only in VM-hosted linux) was as high
as the cached number of threads. This caused that VM supervisors
terminated whole VM sessions if a limit was reached. Many VM providers
have limits of numproc=96 which made it virtually impossible to run YaCy
on such machines. With this change, it will be possible to run many YaCy
instances even on VM hosts.
instead of TreeMaps)
- enhanced memory footprint of database indexes (by introduction of
optimize calls)
- optimize calls shrink the amount of used memory for index sets if they
are not changed afterwards any more
all unique links! This made it necessary, that a large portion of the
parser and link processing classes must be adopted to carry a different
type of link collection which carry a property attribute which are
attached to web anchors.
- introduction of a new URL class, AnchorURL
- the other url classes, DigestURI and MultiProtocolURI had been renamed
and refactored to fit into a new document package schema, document.id
- cleanup of net.yacy.cora.document package and refactoring
jdk-based logger tend to block
at java.util.logging.Logger.log(Logger.java:476) in concurrent
environments. This makes logging a main performance issue. To overcome
this problem, this is a add-on to jdk logging to put log entries on a
concurrent message queue and log the messages one by one using a
separate process.
- FTPClient uses the concurrent logging instead of the log4j logger

method. This is much faster and produces less blocking when using the
Compressor class which is used by the HTCache. I.e. picture search is
much faster now.
- added a memory limitation in the zip parser and the pdf parser
- added a search throttling: if there are too many search queries are still to be computed, then new requests are not accepted for some time. if after a one second still no space is there to perform another search, the search terminates with no results. this case should only happen in case of DoS-like situations and in case of strong load on a peer like if it is integrated in metager.
- added a search cache deletion process that removes search requests in case that throttling happens

used a ASCII String <-> byte[] conversion wherever possible. Many Strings in YaCy are hashes which are pure ASCII (base64 hashes).
The new ASCII String <-> byte[] conversion method have less computation overhead than the UTF8 conversion.

This time it works like this:
- each peer provides its ranking information using the yacy/idx.json servlet
- peers with more than 1 GB ram will load this information from all other peers, combine that into one ranking table and store it locally. This happens during the start-up of the peer concurrently. The new generated file with the ranking information is at DATA/INDEX/<network>/QUEUES/hostIndex.blob
- this index is then computed to generate a new fresh ranking table. Peers which can calculate their own ranking table will do that every start-up to get latest feature updates until the feature is stable
- I computed new ranking tables as part of the distribition and commit it here also
- the YBR feature must be enabled manually by setting the YBR value in the ranking servlet to level 15. A default configuration for that is also in the commit but it does not affect your current installation only fresh peers
- a recursive block rank refinement is implemented but disabled at this point. it needs more testing
Please play around with the ranking settings and see if this helped to make search results better.

- added more properties to solr index
- refactoring
- more constants in switchboard
- fix for some NPEs
- recognition of more images
- removed synchronization in HandleMap (obviously not necessary?)
- added a nolocal configuration to remove excessive dns lookup (works only on allip - default off). Indexes produced with this setting are all flagged with 'local' and are (on purpose) not usable for freeworld because they will be rejected as beeing local.

- added more instances of formatter objects to different classes to make them independent in case of lockings that may applay during synchronization of the date formatter object (date formatting is not thread-safe and must be synchronized therefore)

- added remote search functions to be used within cora
