The resource observer is now able to recognize free disk space AND
available space for YaCy. The amount of space which is assigned for YaCy
are defined in new settings in the configuration file.
Furthermore, there is now a cleanup process which deletes files in case
that an autodelete is activated. The autodelete is now BY DEFAULT ON if
the disk space is low, which means that YaCy starts to delete documents
when the disk is full!
- redesigned the instance mirror class (which was a mess)
- added final method to close a searcher (which otherwise keeps a cache)
- changed cache clear method which iterates over resources and calls
clear to all caches in the searcher resources
- refactored all code which uses URIMetadataRow as standard for word
hash length and word hash ordering and moved that to the class 'Word',
becuase the class URIMetadataRow defined the old metadata data structure
and should be superfluous in the future
- removed unused methods from URIMetadataRow as preparation for further
removal of that class
- all non-dht targets (previously separated into 'robinson' for dht-like
queries and 'node' for solr queries) are non 'extra' peers, which are
queries using solr
- these extra-peers are now selected using a ranking on last-seen,
peer-tag-matches, node-peer flags, peer age, and link count. The ranking
is done using a weight and a random factor.
- the number of extra peers is 50% of the dht peers
- the dht peers now exclude too young peers to prevent bad results
during strong growth of the network
- the number of dht peers (and therefore extra-peers) is reduced when
the memory of the peer is low and/or some documents still appear in the
indexing-queue. This shall prevent a peer from deadlocks when p2p
queries are made in a fast sequence on weak hardware.
as path for solr index dumps (instead of the SEGMENTS path). This will
make a maintenance of index backups easier. It will also provide a tool
to migrate from an freeworld index to a webportal index.
servlet since YaCy 1.63. This is much more performant for the client
than using the XMLResponseWriter because parsing of XML data is very CPU
intensive. Older YaCy peers are still requested using the
XMLResponseWriter but the majority of YaCy peers already respond with
the binary writer. This makes remote searches much faster and less CPU
intensive.
not-flushed Solr cache is now handled in this way:
- it is smaller by default
- an Solr-internal process is started to flush the cache periodically
(this does NOT clean the cache, just removes old objects)
- a Solr-external process (the standard YaCy cleanup-process) now has
direct access to the solr internal cache and flushes them completely.
The time frame for such a flush is defined by the cleanup-process
frequency, by default 10 minutes.
the embedded Solr (the default). This was obtained by cirumventing solrj
search encapsulation and the implementation of direct index access
methods to Solr.
The effect will not only be seen during search, but this has also a
strong effect on suggestions (much more) and less CPU power usage during
index distribution (which needs many search requests)
which had a problem because of badly used concurrency.
This fix also caused a redesign of the whole host deletion process.
This should fix bug http://bugs.yacy.net/view.php?id=250
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
- move setting of system property solr.directoryFactory=solr.MMapDirectoryFactory to solrcore.properties
- add check of os.arch for 64bit system, if it fails use default/solrcore.x86.properties (if exists) as solrcore.properties
reason: on 32bit MMapDirectoryFactory may fail with.....

soft commits, reduced caching size of search events, ensured that solr
results are processed before connection is closed to keep that stuff not
too long in RAM
API recording for this method so it can be repeated automatically. The
index dump generation is now also available for API recording. Added
some synchronization in backend which was necessary for this.
id to be tested, but with a collection of ids. This will cause only a
single call to solr instead of many. The result is a much better
performace when testing the existence of many urls. The effect should
cause very much less IO during index transmission, both on sender and
receiver side.
- removed httpclient 3.1 which has been used by solrj < 4.x.x and is now
not used any more
- fixed some parts in YaCy which used methods from httpclient 3.1
Because the index size is now provided by solr, and the only way to do
that is a match for [* TO *], a size computation is quite complex and
time-consuming. Therefore this patch prevents that the method is called
at all and if necessary puts a DOS-preventing barrier in front of it.
- intruduced raw-queries for the re-introduced byId-Queries (they are
hopefully faster than full edismax queries)
- removed the cached solr connector (testing this) to rely only on the
solr built-in search caches. That should save some RAM (also). We will
see if this is usable.
