Marc Sturlese commented on SOLR-1311:
-------------------------------------

Well I said it can not be integrated as a plugin because it hacks 
DocListAndSetNC and DocListNC. This 2 functions just can be altered altering 
the SolrIndexSearcher.java class.
The pseudo-field-collapse sort is not included in the current field collapsing 
but current field collapsing seems to perform much better that it use to (I 
don't think as good as this patch, but the current feature is much more 
complete than my patch).
I supose I can close it.

> I am trying to develope a new way of doing field collapsing based on the 
> adjacent field collapsing algorithm. I have started developing it beacuse I 
> am experiencing performance problems with the field collapsing patch with big 
> index (8G).
> The algorith does adjacent-pseudo-field collapsing. It does collapsing on the 
> first X documents. Instead of making the collapsed docs disapear, the 
> algorith will send them to a given position of the relevance results list.
> The reason I just do collapsing in the first X documents is that if I have 
> for example 600000 results and I am showing 10 results per page, I really 
> don't need to do collapsing in the page 30000 or even not in the 3000. Doing 
> this I am noticing dramatically better performance. The problem is I couldn't 
> find a way to plug the algorithm as a component and keep good performance. I 
> had to hack few classes in SolrIndexSearcher.java
> This patch is just experimental and for testing purposes. In case someone 
> finds it interesting would be good do find a way to integrate it in a better 
> way than it is at the moment.
> Advices are more than welcome.

> Functionality:
> In solrconfig.xml we specify the pseudo-collapsing parameters:
>      <str name="plus.considerMoreDocs">true</str>
>      <str name="plus.considerHowMany">3000</str>
>      <str name="plus.considerField">name</str>
> (at the moment there's no threshold and other parameters that exist in the 
> current collapse-field patch)
> plus.considerMoreDocs one enables pseudo-collapsing
> plus.considerHowMany sets the number of resultant documents in wich we want 
> to apply the algorithm
> plus.considerField is the field to do pseudo-collapsing
> If the number of results is lower than plus.considerHowMany the algorithm 
> will be applyed to all the results.
> Let's say there is a query with 600000 results and we've set considerHowMany 
> to 3000 (and we already have the docs sorted by relevance). 
> What adjacent-pseudo-collapse does is, if the 2nd doc has to be collapsed it 
> will be sent to the pos 2999 of the relevance results array. If the 3th has 
> to be collpased too  will go to the position 2998 and successively like this.
> The algorithm is not applyed when a sortspec is set or plus.considerMoreDocs 
> is set to false. It neighter is applyed when using MoreLikeThisRequestHanlder.
> Example with a query of 9 results:
> Results sorted by relevance without pseudo-collapse-algorithm:
> doc1 - collapse_field_value 3
> doc2 - collapse_field_value 3
> doc3 - collapse_field_value 4
> doc4 - collapse_field_value 7
> doc5 - collapse_field_value 6
> doc6 - collapse_field_value 6
> doc7 - collapse_field_value 5
> doc8 - collapse_field_value 1
> doc9 - collapse_field_value 2
> Results pseudo-collapsed with plus.considerHowMany = 5
> doc1 - collapse_field_value 3
> doc3 - collapse_field_value 4
> doc4 - collapse_field_value 7
> doc5 - collapse_field_value 6
> doc2 - collapse_field_value 3*
> doc6 - collapse_field_value 6
> doc7 - collapse_field_value 5
> doc8 - collapse_field_value 1
> doc9 - collapse_field_value 2
> Results pseudo-collapsed with plus.considerHowMany = 9
> doc1 - collapse_field_value 3
> doc3 - collapse_field_value 4
> doc4 - collapse_field_value 7
> doc5 - collapse_field_value 6
> doc7 - collapse_field_value 5
> doc8 - collapse_field_value 1
> doc9 - collapse_field_value 2
> doc6 - collapse_field_value 6*
> doc2 - collapse_field_value 3*
> *pseudo-collapsed documents
