Adrien Grand commented on LUCENE-10556:
---------------------------------------

I played with tuning the threshold on luceneutil's StoredFieldsBenchmark with 
1M geonames docs, and results are quite interesting:

||Dirtiness||Indexing time (msec) ||
| 0% | 78534 |
| 1% | 78691 |
| 5% | 78644 |
| 20% | 77994 |
| 33% | 74871 |
|50% | 71064 |
|75% | 47466 |
|100% | 13052 |

Indexing speed doesn't significantly improve until dirtiness is raised to 33%.

> Relax the maximum dirtiness for stored fields and term vectors?

> Stored fields and term vectors compress data and have merge-time 
> optimizations to copy compressed data directly instead of decompressing and 
> recompressing over and over again. However, sometimes incomplete blocks get 
> carried over (typically the last block of a flushed segment) and so these 
> file formats keep track of how "dirty" their current blocks are to know 
> whether stored fields / term vectors for a segment should be re-compressed.
> Currently the logic is to recompress if more than 1% of the blocks are 
> incomplete, or if the total number of missing documents across incomplete 
> blocks is more than the configured maximum number of documents per block.
> I'd be interested in evaluating what the compression ratio would be if we 
> relaxed these conditions a bit, e.g. by allowing up to 5% dirtiness. My gut 
> feeling is that the compression ratio could be barely worse while index-time 
> CPU usage could be significantly improved.
