<h2 id="misc-tools">Misc Tools</h2>
<p>The misc package has various tools for splitting/merging indices,
changing norms, finding high freq terms, and others.</p>
<h2 id="nativeunixdirectory">NativeUnixDirectory</h2>
<p><strong>NOTE</strong>: This uses C++ sources (accessible via JNI), which you&#39;ll
have to compile on your platform.</p>
<p>&lt;xref:Lucene.Net.Store.NativeUnixDirectory&gt; is a Directory implementation that bypasses the
OS&#39;s buffer cache (using direct IO) for any IndexInput and IndexOutput
used during merging of segments larger than a specified size (default
10 MB). This avoids evicting hot pages that are still in-use for
searching, keeping search more responsive while large merges run.</p>
<p>See <a href="http://blog.mikemccandless.com/2010/06/lucene-and-fadvisemadvise.html">this blog post</a>
for details.</p>
<p>Steps to build:</p>
<ul>
<li><tt>cd lucene/misc/</tt>
</li>
<li><p>To compile NativePosixUtil.cpp -&gt; libNativePosixUtil.so, run<tt> ant build-native-unix</tt>.</p>
</li>
<li><p><tt>libNativePosixUtil.so</tt> will be located in the <tt>lucene/build/native/</tt> folder</p>
</li>
<li><p>Make sure libNativePosixUtil.so is on your LD_LIBRARY_PATH so java can find it (something like <tt>export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path/to/dir:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH</tt>, where /path/to/dir contains libNativePosixUtil.so)</p>
</li>
<li><p><tt>ant jar</tt> to compile the java source and put that JAR on your CLASSPATH</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p>NativePosixUtil.cpp/java also expose access to the posix_madvise,
madvise, posix_fadvise functions, which are somewhat more cross
platform than O_DIRECT, however, in testing (see above link), these
APIs did not seem to help prevent buffer cache eviction.</p>

<h4><a class="xref" href="Lucene.Net.Misc.GetTermInfo.html">GetTermInfo</a></h4>

<h4><a class="xref" href="Lucene.Net.Misc.HighFreqTerms.html">HighFreqTerms</a></h4>
<section><p><a class="xref" href="Lucene.Net.Misc.HighFreqTerms.html">HighFreqTerms</a> class extracts the top n most frequent terms
(by document frequency) from an existing Lucene index and reports their
document frequency.
<p>
If the -t flag is given, both document frequency and total tf (total
number of occurrences) are reported, ordered by descending total tf.</p>

<section><p>
A similarity with a lengthNorm that provides for a &quot;plateau&quot; of
equally good lengths, and tf helper functions.
</p>
<p>
For lengthNorm, A min/max can be specified to define the
plateau of lengths that should all have a norm of 1.0.
Below the min, and above the max the lengthNorm drops off in a
sqrt function.
</p>
<p>
For tf, baselineTf and hyperbolicTf functions are provided, which
subclasses can choose between.
