Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-2649:
-------------------------------------

bq. Also set the Lucene default to true, as I want to improve sorting and FCRF.

bq. I know it's only 3% (for ints... 12.5% for bytes), but, 3% here, 3% there 
and suddenly we're talking real money.

I'm having trouble understanding the use case for this bitset.

The jira issue says to add a bitset, but doesnt explain why.

The linked thread talks about this being useful for sorting missing values 
last, but I don't think this justifies
increasing the size of fieldcache by default.


> FieldCache should include a BitSet for matching docs

> The FieldCache returns an array representing the values for each doc.  
> However there is no way to know if the doc actually has a value.
> This should be changed to return an object representing the values *and* a 
> BitSet for all valid docs.
