                 Key: LUCENE-2761
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2761
             Project: Lucene - Java
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Robert Muir
             Fix For: 4.0
         Attachments: LUCENE-2761.patch

In LUCENE-2670 i started working to try to improve the speed of a few 
spanqueries.
In general the trick there is to avoid processing positions if you dont have to.

But, we can improve queries that read lots of positions further by cleaning up 
SegmentDocsAndPositionsEnum, 
in nextPosition() this has no less than 3 payloads-related checks.

however, a large majority of users/fields have no payloads at all.
I think we should specialize this case into a separate implementation and speed 
up the common case.
