Justin Honold 593fffc7a1 Docs: Changing ES_MAX_MEM default from '1gb' to '1g'
If you set ES_HEAP_SIZE to '1gb' as suggested, Java will yield an "Invalid initial heap size".

Simon Willnauer d82a434d10 [STORE] Make a hybrid directory default using `mmapfs` and `niofs`
`mmapfs` is really good for random access but can have sideeffects if
memory maps are large depending on the operating system etc. A hybrid
solution where only selected files are actually memory mapped but others
mostly consumed sequentially brings the best of both worlds and
minimizes the memory map impact.
This commit mmaps only the `dvd` and `tim` file for fast random access
on docvalues and term dictionaries.

Clinton Gormley 8f0991c14f [DOCS] Rewrote the memory settings section on the configuration page 2014-05-14 16:02:59 +02:00
Holger Hoffstätte f5c9bf6f0f Update JNA to latest version
Updating to this version allows to configure a special JNA directory,
in case the /tmp directory is mounted with the noexec option, as JNA
extracts some data and tries to execute parts of it.

Also updated documentation to clarify mlockall and memory settings as well
as pointing to the new jna.tmpdir system property.

Alexander Reelsen c30945a3d8 Start elasticsearch in the foreground by default
Instead of using the '-f' parameter to start elasticsearch in the
foreground, this is now the default modus.

In order to start elasticsearch in the background, the '-d' parameter
can be used.
