I will throw in a real usecase that gives us a bit of headache: completion fields. All the existing codecs load them on heap, and we want to make a switch to load them off heap in certain situations. We could do so with a new codec, but that would only affect newly indexed data, and that is somehow weird as in this specific case it's only a matter of how data gets loaded, nothing to do with how it gets stored. Looks like loading off heap for existing data would only be possible via horrible hacks, if at all? -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
