KinoSearch::Store::RAMInvIndex3pm

In-memory invindex

Usage

    my $invindex = KinoSearch::Store::RAMInvIndex->new(
        path   => '/path/to/invindex',
    );
    # or...
    my $invindex = KinoSearch::Store::RAMInvIndex->new;

Overview

RAMInvIndex is an entirely in-memory implementation of KinoSearch::Store::InvIndex. It serves two main purposes.

First, it's possible to load an existing FSInvIndex into memory, which can improve search-speed -- if you have that kind of RAM to spare. Needless to say, any FSInvIndex you try to load this way should be appropriately modest in size.

Second, RAMInvIndex is handy for testing and development.

Constructor

new

Create a RAMInvIndex object. "new" takes one optional parameter, "path". If "path" is supplied, KinoSearch will try to read an FSInvIndex at that location into memory.
