Fix Version/s: (was: 4.7)

> Key: LUCENE-2335
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2335
> Project: Lucene - Core
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: core/search
> Reporter: Michael McCandless
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: gsoc2014
> Fix For: 4.8
>
>
> Spinoff from java-dev thread "Sorting with little memory: A suggestion",
> started by Toke Eskildsen.
> When sorting by SortField.STRING we currently ask FieldCache for a
> StringIndex on that field.
> This can consumes tons of RAM, when the values are mostly unique (eg a title
> field), as it populates both int[] ords as well as String[] values.
> But, if the index is only one segment, and the search sets fillFields=false,
> we don't need the String[] values, just the int[] ords. If the app needs to
> show the fields it can pull them (for the 1 page) from stored fields.
> This can be a potent optimization -- alot of RAM saved -- for optimized
> indexes.
> When fixing this we must take care to share the int[] ords if some queries do
> fillFields=true and some =false... ie, FieldCache will be called twice and it
> should share the int[] ords across those invocations.
