With this commit we introduce a new store type
hybridfs
that is ahybrid between
mmapfs
andniofs
. This store type chooses differentstrategies to read Lucene files based on the read access pattern (random
or linear) in order to optimize performance.
This store type has been available in earlier versions of Elasticsearch
as
default_fs
. We have chosen a different name now in order to conveythe intent of the store type instead of tying it to the fact whether it
is the default choice.
