Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-4396:
--------------------------------------------
This is neat! So now it's just a simple array holding all buckets
seen, which we can only do if there's at least one MUST clause.
Maybe try testing different values of SIZE?
When you fold in the MUST_NOT clauses you could just compact the array
as you go, instead of having a separate valid bool?
I think we should start moving this towards something committable?
I.e., of all the approaches you've explored, let's take the most
promising and fold them into a new scorer, and then work on the
logic/heuristics for when this scorer should and shouldn't apply?
> BooleanScorer should sometimes be used for MUST clauses

> Today we only use BooleanScorer if the query consists of SHOULD and MUST_NOT.
> If there is one or more MUST clauses we always use BooleanScorer2.
> But I suspect that unless the MUST clauses have very low hit count compared
> to the other clauses, that BooleanScorer would perform better than
> BooleanScorer2. BooleanScorer still has some vestiges from when it used to
> handle MUST so it shouldn't be hard to bring back this capability ... I think
> the challenging part might be the heuristics on when to use which (likely we
> would have to use firstDocID as proxy for total hit count).
> Likely we should also have BooleanScorer sometimes use .advance() on the subs
> in this case, eg if suddenly the MUST clause skips 1000000 docs then you want
> to .advance() all the SHOULD clauses.
> I won't have near term time to work on this so feel free to take it if you
> are inspired!
